Equipment

  • 1 Mini Muffin Pan

Ingredients

  • 4-6 Hot Dogs
  • 1 Box Cornbread Mix (I used Krusteaz Honey Cornbread)
  • Required Ingredients on Cornbread Box

Instructions

  • Start by preheating your oven to 375 degrees and greasing your mini muffin tray with cooking spray or butter.
  • Mix together your cornbread mix with the ingredients listed on the back of the box. For this brand of cornbread, I used a ½ cup of milk, 1/3 cup of melted butter, and 1 egg. Your recipe may vary slightly depending on your cornbread mix brand of choice!
  • Cut each hot dog into 4-5 equal pieces. You want your hot dog pieces to be as tall as your muffin tin.
  • Spoon the prepared cornbread mix into your greased mini muffin pan. Fill each muffin cup about halfway. If you fill it any fuller it will overflow in the oven which I found out the hard way.
  • Push one of the cut hotdog pieces into the middle of each muffin cup. Make sure to push the hot dog all the way to the bottom of the cornbread mix.
  • Bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes or until the edges of the cornbread begins to brown. Let cool for 2-3 minutes and pop these yummy corn dog muffins out with a spoon and enjoy!
