Our Sunday Dinner

I guess we couldn't get over the food fair. We decided to make homemade corn dogs and fries for dinner Sunday night. They were so much better than the food fair ones. I will post the recipe at the bottom of this post.

Oven Baked Corn Dogs
Recipe courtesy Rachael Ray
Ingredients
2 boxes corn muffin mix, 8 1/2 ounces each (recommended: Jiffy brand)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
3/4 cup milk
1/2 stick butter, melted
1 tablespoon chili powder, eyeball it in your palm
2 teaspoons cumin, eyeball it
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper sauce (recommended: Tabasco or Frank's Red Hot
(I used my own seasonings-Garlic, Johnny's seasoning salt, pepper)
8 jumbo pork or beef franks

Directions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. We deep fried ours!!
In a shallow dish, combine muffin mix with flour, then stir in eggs, milk and melted butter. Season the mix with chili powder, cumin, cayenne and scallions. The batter will be a thick, sticky biscuit dough. Place a hot dog in the bowl of batter and swoosh it around to coat it. Remove coated dog to a nonstick cookie sheet and use your fingers to spread batter on any exposed dog spots. Don't coat it too thick, just shy of 1/2-inch should do the trick. If it's too thick it will just slide off the dog while it's baking, leaving the dog exposed. If that happens don't sweat it, they will still taste great. Repeat until all 8 are coated. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until evenly deep brown all over.
