While perusing Pinterest, I saw several different recipes for corn dog muffins. I didn’t pin the recipes because they all contained ingredients my kids couldn’t have, but the idea kept popping up. I decided corn dog muffins would be easy to make gluten-free using my gluten-free cornbread recipe.
Boy am I glad I tried it; my kids love these corn dog muffins! They had not had a corn dog in almost 5 years, so they were thrilled with this gluten-free alternative.
I doubled my gluten-free cornbread recipe and added chopped up turkey dogs. Since they are baked instead of fried in oil, they are lower in fat than traditional corn dogs.
The corn dog muffins freeze well. I froze the muffins and then used them for lunches on busy days. I will be adding this recipe to my batch cooking day.
