Gluten Free Corn Dogs
I love this corn dog recipe! I plan on making these throughout the summer – not only because everyone loves corn dogs, but also because they are so easy and kid-friendly. The batter is actually my pancake recipe with slightly less water, so feel free to substitute your favorite gluten/dairy free pancake recipe.

Ingredients
- 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 cup Warm Water(optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon Distilled White Vinegar
- 2 whole Eggs
- 1/4 cup Almond Milk(optional)
- 2 tablespoons Agave Nectar
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
- 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 3/4 cup Tapioca Flour(optional)
- 8 whole Hot Dogs
- 1 1/2 cups Blanched Almond Flour
- 8 whole Toothpicks
- 1/4 cup Canola Oil(optional)
Instructions
Step 1
Pour the oil into a large skillet and heat to medium heat.
Step 2
Cut the hot dogs in half and insert a toothpick into the cut end of each hot dog.
Step 3
Dry the hot dogs with a paper towel to ensure the batter sticks.
Step 4
To make the batter, first prepare the buttermilk by mixing together the almond milk and vinegar. Set aside.
Step 5
In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: almond flour, tapioca flour, xanthan gum, salt, and baking powder.
Step 6
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: agave nectar, eggs, milk mixture, water, and vanilla.
Step 7
Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing well. If the batter needs thinning, add 1/8 cup warm water at a time.
Step 8
Check the oil temperature by dropping a bit of batter into it. The oil is ready when the batter sizzles but doesn’t burn.
Step 9
Dip 5-6 hot dogs into the batter. You may need to use a knife to help spread the batter evenly over each hot dog.
Step 10
Place a paper-towel lined plate near the skillet. Carefully place the batter-covered hot dogs into the hot oil and cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until dark golden brown. Turn with tongs and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, then transfer to the lined plate.
Step 11
Continue dipping and frying the hot dogs in batches until all hot dogs are cooked.
Step 12
Serve the corn dogs with mustard or ketchup.
