Corn Dogs

Ingredients

1 cup (225 ml) flour 
1/2 cup (125 ml) yellow cornmeal 
1 tbsp (15 ml) sugar 
1/4 tsp (1 ml) salt 
1-1/2 tsp (7 ml) baking powder 
2/3 cup (150 ml) milk 
1 large egg 
1 tbsp (15 ml) melted margarine 
8 hot dogs 
8 wooden sticks (Can be wood dowel cut into 6 to 8 inch lengths) 

Instructions

In a pie tin, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt. In a bowl, combine milk, egg and margarine. Stir milk mixture into flour mixture until well blended. Batter should be thick enough to coat hot dogs. If batter is too thick, add milk; too thin, add flour. Place 2 inches of oil in a pan or deep fryer and heat to 370 degrees (200 C.). Insert a stick in the end of a hot dog; dip into batter to coat evenly. Fry until golden brown and drain on paper towels. Keep warm in a low oven until all the hot dogs are cooked.
