Yield: 24 mini muffins.
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
⅓ cup sugar
2 large eggs
6 beef franks, cut into 1-inch pieces
Mustard and ketchup (optional)
Preheat oven to 375°. Lightly coat a mini-muffin tin with nonstick spray; set aside.
In a large bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, butter, sugar, and eggs. Pour mixture over dry ingredients and stir using a rubber spatula just until incorporated.
Scoop 1 tablespoon batter into each cup and place 1 hot dog piece into the center. Place into oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with mustard and/or ketchup (optional).
