Homemade Mini Corndogs

Delicious homemade mini corndogs, perfect for parties or a fun snack. Crispy on the outside with cheesy wieners inside!

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 14 oz. cocktail wieners (~25 wieners)
  • 4 oz. cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup medium grind yellow cornmeal
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk (any kind)
  • Oil for frying
  • Toothpicks

Instructions

  1. Cut each wiener in half lengthwise without cutting all the way through. Set aside.
  2. Cut the cheddar cheese into thick slices about ½ inch long and ⅛ inch thick.
  3. Place a piece of cheese inside each wiener and secure it with a toothpick. Set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, mix the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar, salt, eggs, and milk until combined. Set aside.
  5. Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep pot over medium heat until it reaches 325-350℉.
  6. While the oil is heating, dip the wieners in the batter, letting any excess batter drip off.
  7. Carefully place them in the hot oil. Make sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for 1-2 minutes until golden.
  8. Remove from oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  9. Continue frying in batches until all corn dogs are cooked. Adjust the oil temperature as needed.
  10. Serve with ketchup and mustard for dipping.

Notes

If you have leftovers, let them cool completely and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
