Homemade Kosher Corn Dogs

Homemade Kosher corn dogs bring the carnival right to the dinner table with this delicious treat!

The Backstory: Here is another recipe that can please children as well as adults. True confession: hot dogs are my favorite food.  As much as I like the traditional way of having hot dogs, served with mustard and sauerkraut, I will try anything that is made with a hot dog. These homemade Kosher corn dogs make a pretty and fun presentation and  let’s face it–kids tend to look at foods and make quick decisions about whether or not they should try it, eat or pass on it. I doubt if they would take a pass on these. These not only taste good they’re fun food! These can be can be served with french fries, and corn and the usual condiments (mustard and ketchup).

  • 2 tbsp. sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2+ cup yellow corn meal

Instructions
