Yes, I understand these don’t look the most appealing, but trust me, then are delicious. I made them for dinner (and had the rest for lunch the next day) but I think these min-corndogs would be perfect as appetizers and also for kids (although I don’t know first hand, but assuming because these are finger food). They are also super easy to make!
For the Mix:
1/4 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup flour
1/2 Tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 Tbsp. sugar
1/2 cup plain/unsweetened soy milk
2 Tbsp. oil
1/2 tsp. paprika
Dash pepper
For the Hot Dogs:
1 pkg. vegan hot dogs
2 cups vegetable oil
Combine all the ingredients for the mix in a large bowl to create a batter. Cut the vegan hot dogs into small pieces, either halves or quarters. Dip the hot dog pieces into the batter to cover. Heat the oil in a frying pan. Use tongs to place the batter-covered hot dog pieces in the oil. Fry for about 3 minutes, then turn. The outside should be golden and crispy. Serve with ketchup, mustard, and your other favorite toppings.
