Ingredients
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk,(regular milk works too)
- 1 tablespoon oil (vegetable oil)
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 10 hot dogs
- Vegetable oil, for frying (2 quarts)
How to Make
-
Step 1: In a medium or large pot, add oil. Turn heat to medium, and heat oil to 350 degrees F.
-
Step 2: In a large bowl add cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir together.
-
Step 3: Add the beaten egg, buttermilk, oil and honey. Stir until combined. (Batter should be a little thicker than pancake batter)
-
Step 4: Wipe hot dogs dry with a paper towel (this will help the batter stick to them better).
-
Step 5: Insert one skewer or wooden stick into each hot dog.
-
Step 6: Pour the batter into a tall drinking glass. Holding by the skewer, take one hot dog and dunk it into the batter, coating all of the hot dog.
-
Step 7: Slowly remove from batter, and let a little excess batter drip back into the cup.
-
Step 8: Immediately place the battered hot dog into the hot oil, while still holding the stick. Turn as necessary to brown all sides. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until all sides are a deep golden brown. Remove from hot oil, and place on paper towels to drain grease.
