I made up this recipe many years ago, because I loved the corn dogs you buy at carnivals but could not find a recipe for them. Great served with mustard.

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1/2 cup milk (114 gr)
1 egg (large, 50 gr)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil (12 gr)
1/4 teaspoon salt (2 gr)
1 box Jiffy Cornbread Mix (8.5 oz )
1-1/4 cup 150 grams unbleached flour (150 gr)
1-1/2 teaspoon bread machine yeast (4.5 gr)
2 packages of 8 bun-size hotdogs
1 egg ((large) 50 gr)
1 tablespoon water (14 gr)

Steps:

Heat milk to lukewarm. Add to bread-machine pan along with remaining ingredients in order listed.
Select the "dough" cycle and start. Open the machine and check the dough after 10 minutes. It should stick to the sides, then pull away. If too wet and sticky, add flour 1 tablespoon at a time. If too dry and thumping against the side of the pan, add a teaspoon of milk or water until dough sticks, then pulls away cleanly.
When dough cycle completes, remove dough to a floured surface. Roll into 9 x 13-inch rectangle.
Cut into 16 strips the short way. Make one cut down the middle of the 16 strips to make 32 strips. See the picture above.
Roll one strip around each hot dog. Lay onto a greased cookie sheet or a silicone mat with ends tucked under.
Cover corn dogs and set in a warm place to rise about 15 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Combine egg and water for the glaze. Lightly brush glaze onto each dog taking care not to use so much glaze that it drips on to the cookie sheet as it will burn.
Bake minini 12 minutes until golden.
