Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces Low-fat turkey hot dogs
- 120 grams Yellow cornmeal
- 100 grams Whole wheat flour
- 10 grams Baking powder
- 5 grams Salt
- 2 grams Paprika
- 30 ml Honey
- 1 large Egg
- 240 ml Low-fat milk
- 1 for coating Vegetable oil spray
- 8 pieces Wooden skewers
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly coat it with vegetable oil spray.
Insert a wooden skewer through each turkey hot dog, leaving enough of the stick uncovered to serve as a handle.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, and paprika.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey, egg, and low-fat milk until well blended.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until you have a smooth, slightly thick batter.
Pour the batter into a tall glass for easy dipping.
Dip each skewered hot dog into the batter, rotating slightly to ensure it is evenly coated. Let any excess drip off before placing it on the prepared baking sheet.
Repeat this process with all the hot dogs.
Bake the corn dogs in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the batter is golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm with your favorite low-fat dipping sauce.
