Equipment

  • wide heavy bottomed pan for deep frying
  • candy apple sticks or popsicle sticks

Ingredients
 
 

Batter

  • 1 C. bread flour
  • 1/4 C. rice flour if unavailable, substitute more bread flour
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • tbsp. granulated sugar
  • 1 egg large
  • 3 oz. warm water
  • 1 tsp. instant yeast

Coating

  • 1/2 C. panko bread crumbs
  • 2 C. frozen french fries (optional) chopped into 1/2" cubes

Hot Dogs & Cheese

  • 4 hot dogs
  • 4 oz. mozzarella cheese cut into 3/4"x2" sticks
  • 6 C. peanut oil for frying

Optional Toppings

  • granulated sugar
  • yellow mustard
  • ketchup

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl whisk together bread flour, rice flour, salt, and sugar.
  • In a separate bowl whisk together the egg and water. Add yeast and whisk to incorporate.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry. Stir to combine. Once a ball of dough is formed, cover the bowl with a damp towel and place in a warm spot to proof for at least 1 hour.
  • For a regular corn dog skewer a whole hot dog onto a skewer leaving 2 inches for a handle. For a combination dog, cut a hot dog in half and skewer it followed with a block of cheese. Pat the skewers dry with a paper towel.
  • In a wide heavy bottomed-pan heat 1-2" of peanut oil to 330˚F/165˚C.
  • Dip a skewer into the batter and wrap the dough around the hot dog. Using wet fingertips pinch off the excess dough and smooth it into an even layer.
  • Roll the skewers into french fries or bread crumbs until evenly coated. If using french fries be sure to press firmly so they stick to the batter.
  • Gently place the skewer into the hot oil and fry until golden ~5-7 minutes. Turn for even browning.
  • Drain the corn dogs on rack. Sprinkle each corn dog with a teaspoon of sugar and a generous drizzle of ketchup and mustard. Serve hot.
