Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces hot dogs
- 1 box (about 8.5 ounces) cornbread mix
- 0.5 cups milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 can (about 14.75 ounces) cream-style corn
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon (optional) yellow mustard
- 0.25 cups (optional) chopped green onions
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
Slice the hot dogs into 1-inch pieces and set them aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornbread mix, milk, egg, and cream-style corn. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, yellow mustard (if using), chopped green onions (if using), salt, and black pepper.
Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat, then lightly brown the sliced hot dogs. This adds additional flavor.
Add the browned hot dogs into the cornbread mixture and stir gently to combine.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the casserole cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Slice into squares and enjoy!
