Kathleen's Homemade Baked Corn Dogs


I made these last week and I'm not sure if I did it right. I followed the recipe pretty closely, the only changes I made were milk powder instead of milk, instant yeast instead of dry active, no sesame seeds, and 1/8 teaspoon cayenne and paprika (because I couldn't choose which one to use). The recipe said that they had to add extra flour because their dough was too sticky, but I had the opposite problem. My dough was dry dry dry. To the point where my dough hook wouldn't catch the dough properly while kneading. But there was no way I was going to stand there and knead by hand so I just said screw it and oiled the bowl and let it rise the way it was. Needless to say, it didn't really rise at all. So I am not sure what it was supposed to be like, but it rolled out okay and baked up just fine. They were yummy and "healthy." Oh, I also boiled the hot dogs to make me feel like I got rid of some extra fat. And a bit of advice, don't eat them all before you photograph them. A picture of a single corn dog doesn't look...right.
