Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Cornmeal
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Milk
- 8 pieces Hot dogs
- 1 pound Pizza dough
- 4 cups Vegetable oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and mix in the milk. Gradually stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until smooth to create a batter. Set aside.
Roll out the pizza dough onto a lightly floured surface until it is about 1/8-inch thick. Use a knife or pizza cutter to slice the dough into long strips, approximately 1/2-inch wide.
Wrap each hot dog with a strip of pizza dough, spiraling it around the hot dog from one end to the other. Lightly press the ends to seal.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large, deep pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Make sure the oil is deep enough to fully submerge the hot dogs.
Dip each dough-wrapped hot dog into the prepared batter, coating it evenly. Allow any excess batter to drip off before carefully lowering it into the hot oil with tongs.
Fry 2-3 corn dog twists at a time, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
Remove the corn dog twists from the oil using tongs and place them on a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve the corn dog twists hot with your favorite dipping sauces such as ketchup, mustard, or honey mustard.
