Ingredients
•
1 cup yellow cornmeal
•
1 cup all-purpose flour
•
1/4 cup white sugar
•
4 teaspoons baking powder
•
1/4 teaspoon salt
•
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
•
1 cup cold whole milk
•
1 large egg
•
16 large hot dogs
•
2 cups vegetable oil for frying, or as needed
•
16 skewers
Directions
1
Mix cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl; stir in milk and egg until smooth. Cover; refrigerate until needed.
2
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add hot dogs; cook until heated through, about 7 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate; let rest for 10 minutes.
3
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Insert one skewer into each hot dog; blot dry with paper towels. Pour chilled batter into a tall glass.
4
Dip one hot dog into batter to coat; transfer to oil. Repeat with as many hot dogs as can comfortably fit in the fryer without overcrowding.
5
Fry until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining hot dogs.
