CORN DOGS OVEN RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and make sure the oven rack is in the center position.
• Lightly grease the corn-shaped wells of the cast iron pan with 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil.
• Place the pan in the oven to preheat (pan should heat in the oven at least 15 minutes).
• While the pan is heating, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, cornmeal, flour, baking powder, Baby Bam, salt, buttermilk, egg, and cheddar in a mixing bowl and stir with a fork until just combined.
• Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven and spoon about 3 tablespoons of the batter into each well. (This will use up only half of the batter.).
• Lay 2 cocktail sausages down the center of each well.
• Spoon the remaining batter into each well, dividing evenly between the wells, completely covering the sausages.
• Bake until golden brown, about 18 minutes.
• Remove pan from the oven and let sit for 3 to 5 minutes before turning the muffins out of the pan.
• Serve hot, with desired condiments for dipping.

Steps:

• Combine cornmeal, flour, white sugar, baking powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl; stir in milk and egg until batter is smooth. Refrigerate until batter is chilled.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil; cook hot dogs until heated through, about 7 minutes. Let hot dogs rest for 10 minutes and dry hot dogs on a paper towel.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Insert 1 skewer into each hot dog.
• Pour batter into a large drinking glass. Dip hot dogs into the batter until well coated.
• Fry 2 to 3 hot dogs at a time in the hot oil until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
