Recipe View Serve immediately: Serve hot with your favorite condiments like mustard, ketchup, or even a drizzle of honey for a touch of sweetness. (1 minute)

For a smoother batter, sift the dry ingredients before mixing.
If the batter is too thick, add a tablespoon of milk at a time until desired consistency is reached. If it's too thin, add a tablespoon of flour.
Maintain a consistent oil temperature for even cooking and optimal crispness.
Don't overcrowd the fryer, as this will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy corn dogs.
For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the batter.
Leftover corn dogs can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for best results.
