Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat oil enough oil to submerge the corndogs without them touching the bottom on high in a heavy bottom pan. Alternatively, you can use a deep fryer set to 375 F.
  • Place a popsicle stick in the center of each hot dog (8).
  • In a wide-mouthed bowl (or tall glass, easier for dunking) combine whey protein (1/2 cup), xanthan gum (1 teaspoon), salt (1/2 teaspoon), and baking powder (2 teaspoons).
  • Use a rubber spatula to stir in soda water (3 tablespoons) and large egg (1). The mixture will be slightly clumpy, but don't worry, it'll smooth as it fries.
  • Once the oil is hot, add corndogs in batches so they aren't overcrowded in the pan (I fry them 1 at a time).
  • Flip halfway through. You'll know the dogs are done once they're golden on each side. Place corndogs on a paper towel-lined plate and continue until you've fried all the corn dogs.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • Mild Tasting Oil. You want an oil with a high smoke point and mild flavor -- think avocado, vegetable, safflower, sunflower, peanut. Skip EVOO, coconut, or sesame oil. 
  • Xanthan Gum is necessary for binding the ingredients of this recipe together, you CAN'T SKIP OR SUB!
  • Nutritional information will vary based on the type of hot dogs and whey protein powder you use. The information below was calculated using ISO Pure Whey Protein Isolate (zero carb):
