Ingredients
Equipment
Steps
- 1
Pat hot dogs very dry. Insert wooden sticks into each one.
- 2
Mix cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk in egg, milk, and melted butter until smooth.
- 3
Pour batter into a tall glass. Dip each hot dog, twirling to coat evenly. Let excess drip off.
- 4
Spray with cooking spray. Air fry at 370°F for 8-10 minutes, turning halfway, until golden brown.
- 5
Serve with mustard and ketchup.
Tip: A tall glass makes dipping so much easier than a bowl. Pat the hot dogs completely dry or the batter won't stick. If batter slides off, dust the dogs with flour first. Don't overcrowd — cook in batches for even browning.
