Corndogs always remind me of the fair and I love them, but combining not only a hotdog (not the most healthy food out there) & deep-frying and you’re feeling guilty before you even take the first delicious bite, but you don’t have to be! Check out this recipe for a fun alternative to the traditional corndog—it’s healthier and delicious to boot!
Easily double the batch to make these ahead of time for lunches or snacks! I bet little smoked sausages would also be great in these cornbread muffins!
Baked Corndog Muffins Recipe
Author: Ashley
Recipe type: Lunch
Ingredients
- 2 Oscar Meyer Turkey Select Hotdogs (or hotdog brand of choice)
- 8.5 oz. box of Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix (you can make your own mix if you
- prefer—but I like this one as a quick option)
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup of milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Prep 6 muffin cups with Baker’s Joy or line with paper baking cups.
- In a small bowl combine corn muffin mix, egg and milk and blend until just combined, the batter may remain slightly lumpy.
- Let batter rest for 3-4 minutes as directed on the box.
- Meanwhile cut both hot dogs into 3 equal portions.
- Once batter has set, fill each muffin cup ⅔ full and place 1 hotdog portion into the center of each. The hotdog will stick up above the batter line.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
- Serve & enjoy!
Notes
• My husband likes his spicy so I mince a couple slices of jalapeno and add it to the batter to appease his taste buds and he loves them!
• Double the recipe if serving a crowd or if you want to have extras on hand for lunches or snacks!

I have this on my menu plan for the week. I saw on pinterest where the hotdog is chopped up and spread throughout the mix. Might be a different way to try it.
Hi Peggy!
Thanks for the tip about cutting up the hot dogs! Sounds good!
