Ingredients

Scale

Batter Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free blend for gluten-free version)
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup milk

Filling

  • 4–6 sausages or hot dogs, cut into pieces
  • 4–6 mozzarella cheese sticks, cut to similar size as sausages

Coating and Frying

  • Cooking oil (for deep frying, such as vegetable or canola oil)
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs or crushed cornflakes

Optional Toppings and Serving

  • Powdered sugar for dusting
  • Ketchup
  • Mustard
  • Chili powder or gochujang (optional spicy twist)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Cut the mozzarella cheese sticks and sausages into similar-sized pieces. Skewer each piece firmly on wooden sticks to make frying and serving easier.
  2. Make the Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, egg, and milk until a smooth, thick batter forms. The batter should be thick enough to coat the skewers evenly but not runny.
  3. Coat the Corn Dogs: Dredge each sausage or cheese skewer fully into the batter, then roll it in panko breadcrumbs or crushed cornflakes to achieve an ultra-crispy exterior.
  4. Fry to Golden Perfection: Heat oil in a deep fryer or heavy pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the coated corn dogs for about 3-5 minutes until golden brown, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking.
  5. Drain and Serve: Remove the corn dogs from oil and place on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve immediately with optional toppings like powdered sugar, ketchup, or mustard.

Notes

  • Maintain oil temperature at 350°F (175°C) for perfect frying and crispiness.
  • Ensure cheese and sausage are firmly secured on skewers to prevent separation during frying.
  • Keep batter thick enough to stick but not too runny for best results.
  • For extra crunch, double-dip the corn dogs in batter and breadcrumbs before frying.
  • Fry immediately after coating to prevent cheese from melting out prematurely.
