Corn Dog Muffin Bites

Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 14 minutes

Ingredients:

1 3/4 cups cornmeal
3/4 cup all purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup honey
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
2 large eggs
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 veggie hot dogs, cut into 1/2-inch coins (you can also use turkey or beef)

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 425F degrees.
  2. Mix the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey, buttermilk, eggs and oil.
  4. Pour the dry cornmeal mixture into the wet ingredients and thoroughly combine with a whisk.*
  5. Grease muffin cups with cooking spray, softened butter or oil on a paper towel and then pour one tablespoon batter into greased mini muffin cups. I use two 24-cup mini muffins pans!
  6. Lay hot dog slices cut-side down in the center of each batter-filled muffin cup.
  7. Top with an additional tablespoon of batter.
  8. Bake until starting to turn golden, about 14 minutes.
  9. Add popsicle sticks after baked and serve.

* Boxed cornbread mix also works great in this recipe. Follow the directions of the boxed mix, prepare enough batter to yield at least 40 mini muffins and skip to step 5 to continue making the bites.
