How to make Homemade Corn Dogs
dry ingredients in a bowl for corn dog batter
In a large mixing bowl, combine your dry ingredients: the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
honey and dry ingredients in a bowl
Add the egg, honey, and buttermilk and stir until all combined.
Cover the bowl and chill the cornmeal batter for 15 minutes. Stir well after chilling.

Pat the surface of the hotdogs dry with a paper towel, then insert the sticks halfway into the hotdogs.

Heat 4 inches of oil in a large pot to 350F degrees. *a deep fryer works great for this as well but isn’t necessary.
Pour the cornbread batter into a tall glass. Dip one whole hot dog into the corn dog batter until it’s covered in enough batter (completely coated in batter - so you might take a spoon or scoop to pour batter over the very top) then gently lower the corndog into the hot oil. *I like to use a pair of tongs for this step.

Cook the corndog for about 3 minutes or until they reach golden brown perfection.

Remove and place on paper towels on a baking sheet to cool and drain off excess oil. Repeat the process with the remaining hot dogs and batter.

Pro Tip Notes for this Homemade Corndog Recipe:
This corn dog recipe calls for deep frying the corndogs. That is the very best way to make them and this recipe isn’t well-adapted for other cooking methods, such as baking and air frying.
We prefer vegetable oil for frying but you can use peanut oil or other oils - it may of course change the flavor a bit.
You can also make this homemade corndogs recipes into corn dog bites. Those might be easier for little hands or you could also serve them as a mini corn dogs appetizers! (*if you do make mini corndog bites, consider serving them drenched in chili for a chili dogs creation, yum! (make sure to try my other mini corn dog recipe)
