Ingredients

8 servings

•

1 cup yellow cornmeal
•

1 cup all-purpose flour
•

0.25 cup white sugar
•

4 teaspoons baking powder
•

0.25 teaspoon salt
•

0.125 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

Instructions

Combine cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl; stir in milk and egg until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook hot dogs in boiling water until heated through, about 7 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and let rest for 10 minutes.
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Insert one skewer into each hot dog and blot dry if wet. Pour chilled batter into a tall drinking glass.
Dip one hot dog into batter until well coated; transfer to hot oil. Repeat with as many hot dogs as can comfortably fit in the fryer without overcrowding (one or two more). Fry until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Repeat to coat and fry remaining hot dogs.
