The Corn Dog Bun Hot Dog Recipe
Regular hot dog buns are totally played out! Try using a corn dog that's been sliced down the middle as a bun for your hot dog instead!
Ingredients
- 2 quarts oil for frying
- 4 corn dog sticks or chopsticks if you can’t find corn dog sticks
- 8 hot dogs
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1 cup flour
- ¼ cup sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon pepper
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk
- Ketchup, mustard or your preferred corn dog accompaniment
Instructions
- Heat oil in deep fryer or heavy skillet to 375°F.
- In a bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, pepper and baking powder. Stir in eggs and milk.
- Take corn dog sticks and slide one hot dog onto each one.
- Transfer corn dog batter to a tall glass and dip the corn dogs one by one into the batter.
- Fry corn dogs in batches for 4 minutes or until golden brown.
- Remove sticks from corn dogs and slice in half almost completely through so they open like hot dog buns.
- Place a hot dog in the middle of each corn dog bun and top with ketchup, mustard or your preferred hot dog accompaniment.
