Step by Step Method

Step 1

In a large pot, heat vegetable oil to 350 degrees- F.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, stir together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Use a whisk to beat in the egg, milk, and melted butter.

Step 3

Insert the popsicle (or craft sticks) into each hot dog leaving enough of the stick showing to create a handle. Pat each hot dog dry with a paper towel.

Step 4

Transfer batter to a tall drinking glass for easy dipping. Dip each hot dog into the batter, covering the hot dog completely. After dipping, put immediately into the hot oil to fry.
