Ingredients
  

For the Dough
  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup non-fat milk
  • 1/4 cup honey
For the Corn Dogs
  • 7 lean beef hot dog franks cut in half
  • 14 wooden sticks
For Serving
  • mustard
  • ketchup

Equipment

  • Large baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Pastry blender
  • Wooden spoon

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and ground mustard. Cut in the butter using a pastry blender or two forks until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Stir in the milk and honey until well combined.
  3. Place the dough on a piece of parchment paper lightly dusted with flour. Sprinkle more flour over the dough, then place another piece of parchment paper on top. Roll the dough to 1/4-inch thickness.
  4. Push a wooden stick into the cut end of each hot dog half. Place a hot dog half on the dough and cut a square large enough to wrap around it. Wrap the dough around each hot dog, sealing both ends and any open areas.
  5. Place the wrapped corn dogs on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until they begin to brown.
  6. Serve with mustard and ketchup for dipping.

Notes

These mummy corn dogs are a fun alternative to fried versions, offering a taste of the fair with a homemade touch. They are great for kids and can be made ahead of time.
