• EGFG gluten free flour blend*
• sugar
• baking powder
• buttermilk (or sour milk)
• egg
• gluten free pork wieners
• mustard and/or ketchup

See recipe card for exact amounts.

🌭 Substitutions

Gluten Free Flour Blend - Anytime you substitute with a different gluten free flour blend the results will be slightly different. Once you have a blend you like that works in some of my recipes, there's a good chance you can substitute it for my blend with good results.

Buttermilk - The buttermilk substitute is sour milk. It doesn't add as much lightness to any recipe the way commercial buttermilk does, but it's easy if you have milk in your fridge. The recipe is 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to make 1 cup of sour milk.

Wieners - Gluten free wieners are readily available so choose the ones you like. During my recipe testing we decided European wieners had too much snap and all-beef wieners didn’t have the right taste. Good quality pork wieners were our favourite.

Vegetarian - Substitute gluten free vegetarian wieners for your veggie friends and family.

🌭 Top Tip

Gluten free flours are all different so keep an open mind, be willing to follow uncommon instructions and just keep cooking. Sometimes a recipe seems like a failure but if you just keep going, it will probably work out.'

Instructions

• Heat oil in a deep fryer or wok to 350°F.
• Measure milk in a 2-cup measuring cup then add egg. Mix to combine.
• In a large bowl whisk cornmeal, gluten free flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
• Add wet ingredients to the dry and stir until combined. The dough will be quite stiff. Add a tablespoon of oil or more milk if it is too stiff to work with.
• Insert a wooden skewer into each wiener stopping about half way up the wiener.
• Using your hands wrap the dough around the wiener to completely cover it. Repeat until all the wieners are covered.
• Gently slide the corn dogs into the oil working in batches. Cook for 3 minutes until golden brown, turning if needed. Repeat until they are all cooked.
• Drain on paper towel and serve warm with mustard and ketchup.

Notes

If the oil goes above 350°F turn the heat down and wait. The corn dogs will brown too quickly at a higher temperature and the dough will not be fully cooked.
