CORN DOG MUFFIN BITES
This baked version of the childhood classic is super cute and easy to make. Simply spoon cornbread batter into a mini-muffin pan, add hot dog slices and pop them in the oven. I make my own cornbread batter but you could substitute your favorite mix. Any hot dogs or sausage will work here. Serve with an array of dips to add to the fun!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Grease 2 mini muffin pans with cooking spray.
- Mix the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together in a bowl. Whisk the buttermilk, honey, oil and eggs together in a separate bowl. Pour the dry mixture into the wet ingredients and thoroughly combine with a whisk.
- Pour 1 tablespoon batter into each prepared mini muffin cup. Lay hot dog slices cut-side down in the center of each batter-filled muffin cup. Top each with an additional tablespoon of batter.
- Bake for 14 minutes, then serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right hot dogs. Thick, juicy hot dogs will hold up better to being battered and fried than thin, dry ones. We recommend using a high-quality beef or pork hot dog.
- Make sure the batter is cold. This will help the batter adhere to the hot dogs and prevent it from becoming too greasy.
- Fry the corn dogs in hot oil. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming soggy.
- Serve the corn dogs immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. We recommend ketchup, mustard, or ranch dressing.
