Gluten Free Corn Dogs |
I’m sure you’re all aware that being gluten
free often means we can’t eat what everyone else is eating. It’s been a long time since I've had a corn
dog. I can’t really say I was too
bothered by that fact since I always preferred my hot dogs grilled or pan seared
because I love the way the skin gets crisp and the flavor intensifies with
direct heat.
But since I happened to be deep frying
last week when I made those crispy carnival funnel cakes, I thought it was the
perfect opportunity to try my hand at a gluten free corn dog recipe for anyone
else that might be missing them. They
turned out to be really simple to make.
And just like with the funnel cakes, corn dogs don’t need gluten to be
great. Seriously, I’d challenge anyone
to be able to tell that these are gluten free.
I was truly surprised how much I
enjoyed them especially since I didn’t remember liking corn dogs all that
much.
