Vegan Corn Dogs are a plant-based version of the classic fair food, featuring crispy cornmeal batter and savory vegan sausages, offering the same delicious flavor and texture as traditional corn dogs.

Ingredients

  1. 6 vegan hot dogs or sausages (soy or gluten-free if needed)
    1 cup cornmeal
    1/2 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour for a gluten-free option)
    1 tablespoon sugar
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper
    1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
    3/4 cup plant-based milk (almond, soy, oat, etc.)
    1 tablespoon vegetable oil (plus more for frying)
    6 wooden skewers (or popsicle sticks)

Instructions

Prepare the vegan sausages by cutting them to fit your skewers and inserting a skewer into each sausage, making sure it’s secure.

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika (if using).
  2. Slowly add plant-based milk and vegetable oil to the dry ingredients, stirring until smooth and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Adjust the consistency by adding more flour or milk as needed.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C), ensuring there is enough oil to submerge the corn dogs.
  4. Dip each skewered sausage into the batter, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Tap off any excess batter.
  5. Carefully fry the corn dogs for 3-4 minutes or until golden and crispy, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking.
  6. Remove from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces like ketchup, mustard, or vegan mayo.

Notes

  1. For a spicy version, add cayenne pepper or chili powder to the batter for extra heat.
  2. Use maple syrup or agave for a slightly sweet flavor in the batter.
  3. Feel free to use any plant-based sausage or hot dog, as different varieties offer a variety of flavors.
  4. For a gluten-free version, swap the flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
