Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 8 hot dogs
  • 8 wooden skewers
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup finely diced potato
  • 1/4 cup crushed ramen noodles
  • 2 tablespoons sugar, for dusting
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Pat the hot dogs dry with paper towels. Insert a skewer into each hot dog.
  5. Dip each hot dog into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Let excess batter drip off.
  6. Roll the battered hot dog in your chosen coating (panko, diced potato, or crushed ramen).
  7. Heat about 2-3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep pot or Dutch oven to 350°F (175°C).
  8. Carefully place 1-2 coated corn dogs into the hot oil. Fry for 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.
  9. Remove corn dogs from the oil and place on a wire rack to drain.
  10. Immediately dust with 2 tablespoons of sugar while still warm.
  11. Serve hot with your favorite toppings like ketchup, mustard, or spicy mayo.

Notes

  • For an air fryer version, preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray the coated corn dogs with oil and air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown.
  • Experiment with different coatings like crushed cornflakes or cheese puffs.
  • Consider adding a mozzarella cheese stick alongside the hot dog for a cheese pull effect.
  • For a healthier option, you can bake the corn dogs at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway.
