Now, I know you’re probably thinking…
these do not look like corn dogs.
They’re round
not oval (as my son so kindly pointed out)
They do not have a stick (also pointed out by my loving children)
They are not fried (doesn’t that add flavor Stella asked?)
all valid points, but…
mine are healthyish
easily packable
completely delicious (even without frying)
I also happen to think they’re really cute.
Charlie’s friends at school thought they were awesome:)
at least someone appreciates me.
inspired from these @weelicious
For the corn dogs:
3 all natural hot dogs (cut in half)
1 recipe of cornbread (I used the Trader Joe’s mix)
ketchup
butter a 6 cup {large}muffin tin
divide the batter in half
divide evenly among the 6 cups
place 1/2 hot dog in each cup
add a squirt of ketchup
top with the remaining batter
bake @350 for about 20 – 25 minutes (follow your cornbread instructions)
I have totally got this lunch packing thing down!
About Heather @French Press
What a great idea to make them in cupcake molds and add the ketchup in pre-baking!
This is such a awesome idea! Looks and sounds so good. Thanks for visiting me and for your sweet words
Eek! I love mini corndogs, and I’m pretty sure as a kid I sustained life from mini corndogs (though not as cute nor as healthy!) I have made a variation of these before but didn’t think to add a squirt of ketchup in the batter–genius! And now I want a batch of these bad boys for lunch
You’ve totally given me the best idea ever that will make Jordan love me forever; put this in her lunch. THANK YOU!
This is a fabulous idea! I think I want to pack them in MY lunch! LOL
