Homemade Corndogs

Living gluten and dairy free can sometimes be a challenge for our kiddos.  I love attempting substitutes that are healthier but still fun, kid-friendly food.  This one is a hit with the kids and the hubs!

(Note:  These freeze great and are an easy make ahead lunch for kids.  Just pull them out of the freezer and pop them in the lunch box, they are thawed by lunchtime!)


What you need:
-1 batch of gluten free cornbread batter
-Hot dogs (we prefer the Applegate Farms organic, uncured, all beef variety)
-1 mini muffin tin

1.  Preheat oven to 350.
2.  Generously grease muffin tin. (You'll need to do this between batches if making more than one!)
3.  Cut hot dogs into 1/2" pieces.
4.  Fill muffin tins 1/2 full with cornbread batter then push 1 piece of hot dog into each muffin cup. (This is a great step to involve the kids in the kitchen!  They LOVE putting the dogs in.)
5.  Bake for 12-15 minutes or until toothpick from center muffin cup comes out clean.
6.  Serve with ketchup and/or mustard for dipping, of course!
