Ingredients
Scale
- 6 gluten free hot dogs ()
- ½ cup (70 g) gluten free corn flour (or cornmeal)
- ½ cup (70 g) gum-free gluten free flour blend (plus more for sprinkling)
- 1 tablespoon (12 g) granulated sugar (optional)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder ()
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt ()
- 1 (50 g weighed out of shell) egg (at room temperature, beaten)
- ½ cup (4 fluid ounces) milk (at room temperature)
- Oil (for deep frying)
- 12 lollipop sticks (or bamboo skewers)
- Additional corn flour or gum-free gluten free flour (by the tablespoonful (for fritters, optional))
- Confectioners’ sugar (for dusting, optional)
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together cornmeal, gluten-free flour blend, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the egg and milk, mixing until smooth. Transfer the batter to a tall glass or jar and refrigerate while prepping hot dogs.
- Pat hot dogs dry and cut each in half. Insert a skewer halfway through each piece. Lightly coat them in gluten-free flour for better adhesion.
- Heat frying oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan to 350°F (175°C), checking with a thermometer. Maintain this temperature.
- Whisk the chilled batter. Dip each hot dog into the batter, coating evenly. For a thicker crust, dip twice, twirling slowly to avoid dripping.
- Fry coated hot dogs for about 2 minutes, turning until golden brown on all sides.
- Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining hot dogs.
- Serve hot, or for extra crispness, place in a 300°F (150°C) oven for 5 minutes before serving.
