MINI CORN DOGS RECIPE BY TASTY
These kid-friendly corn dog bites are too cute (and easy!) to not make for every movie night. After cutting hot dogs into thirds, all you have to do is coat them in flour and a simple batter, quickly fry them for a few minutes, then serve with your favorite condiments or dipping sauces. The best part? Because these are mini, you don't need to buy skewers!

MINI CORN DOGS
In the spirit of summer fairs all over the country, I made a lightly sweetened cornmeal batter, then dunked hot dog chunks into it and deep-fried them into bronzed nuggets - in other words, bite-size corn dogs. (Feel free to fry whole hot dogs on sticks if you're going for authenticity.)

Steps:
- Heat 2 inches of oil in a large heavy pot to 375 degrees F on a deep-frying thermometer. Line a plate with paper towels.
- Insert wooden ice pop sticks or skewers securely into the hot dogs.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, salt, pepper, sugar, and baking powder. In a separate bowl, gently whisk the eggs with the milk and stir into the dry mix.
- Preheat the oil in a Dutch oven, deep saucepot or mini fryer to 350 degrees F.
- Insert wooden skewers through the center of each frankfurter.
- Dry frankfurters with a towel, then dust with cornstarch and shake off the excess. Then hold the frankfurters by the end of the skewer and dip in the batter until well coated. Let the excess batter drip off.
- Carefully holding the end of the skewer, let the corn dogs fry for 5 seconds before letting go to prevent them sticking to the bottom of the pot. Fry until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
Tips:
- Use high-quality hot dogs and cornmeal for the best flavor.
- Make sure the oil is hot enough before frying the corn dogs. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the corn dogs. This will also help them cook evenly.
- Serve the corn dogs immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
- You can also make corn dog bites by cutting the hot dogs into smaller pieces before dipping them in the batter.
- For a fun twist, try using different types of hot dogs, such as spicy or cheese-filled.
- You can also add other ingredients to the batter, such as chopped bacon, cheese, or jalapeños.
- If you don't have a deep fryer, you can also fry the corn dogs in a large skillet filled with oil.
- Be careful not to overcook the corn dogs, as this will make them tough.
Conclusion:
Miniature corn dogs are a delicious and fun snack that are perfect for parties or gatherings. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a fun and easy snack, give miniature corn dogs a try!
