You won’t believe how easy these are to make, and they’re so much healthier too! No deep frying necessary here. We make these all the time there so good!
Ingredients
- Dough:
- 1 scant tablespoon active dry yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 cup warm water
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, about
- 1/4 cup fine yellow cornmeal
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for the bowl and brushing on crusts
- 1 tablespoon agave nectar or brown sugar
- 3/4 cup cool water
- Filling:
- 1 batch homemade seitan sausages (either the Spicy Italian Vegetarian Sausage recipe from Everyday Dish or the Smoky Sausage Links from the Membership area of Everyday Dish) or
- 1 package store-bought vegan/vegetarian hotdogs
Instructions
- Dissolve the yeast in the warm water; stir in the sugar and set aside for 10 minutes.
- Mix the agave with the salt, olive oil and cool water and set aside.
- Put the flour in the bowl of a food processor. With the processor running, slowly pour the agave-oil mixture in through the feed tube. Then pour in the dissolved yeast. Process until the dough forms a ball on the blade. If it is too sticky, sprinkle on a little more flour. Scrape the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Transfer to an oiled bowl, and let rest 1 hour. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Roll out the dough into fairly thin pieces. Wrap up sausages or hot dogs with the dough. Pinch the edges to seal. Place the corn dogs seam side down on a Silpat or parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake the corn dogs in the preheated oven until golden, about 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven, and insert a popsicle stick or skewer into the bottom of each corn dog. Enjoy!
