Give your picnic, party or cookout a carnival flair with this fun-to-devour favorite. When dipped in a batter of cornmeal, flour and raw cane sugar, these skewered hot dogs are encased with a crispy golden-brown goodness that adds a crunchy sweetness to juicy, meaty franks. Great for dipping in any traditional or housemade sauce or condiment.

Corn Dogs

6 hot dogs
2 cups all purpose flour
2 cups cornmeal
1 cup Florida Crystals® Organic Raw Cane Sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 tablespoon salt
2 cups buttermilk
1 tablespoon sambal
4 tablespoons butter, melted
3 quarts peanut oil

Instructions

Step 1

Pat the hot dogs down with a paper towel so that they are completely dry. Skewer with a long wood skewer.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine buttermilk, sambal and butter and then add to the dry ingredients. Place the batter in a tall container like a water glass.

Step 4

In a large pot over medium heat, heat the oil to 360°F.

Step 5

Dip the hot dogs into the batter and coat evenly. Fry until golden brown (about 8 minutes) and turning as necessary.

Remove from the oil and place on a plate lined with paper towels.

Serve with choice of dipping sauces. We recommend serving with our carrot ketchup.
