First up, gather your ingredients! You'll need hot dogs, yellow cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, an egg, and buttermilk. Let’s make something amazing!
Next, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. In a separate bowl, mix the egg and buttermilk. Combine both to create your batter.
Make sure your batter is just right – thick enough to coat the dogs well. If it's too thick, add a bit more buttermilk. This is the secret to a crispy coating!
Drain the corn dogs on paper towels, then serve hot with your favorite condiments like ketchup and mustard. Crunchy outside, juicy inside – perfection!
