During the summer eating healthy can take a back seat because we tend to fall out of our normal routines and end up going out to eat more. We end up resorting to quick meals that tend to be more fast food-oriented. I always try to have a little fun when trying to cook more healthy foods. Making the food more fun can help us avoid resorting to fast food chains. I like to try to recreate foods that I used to always look forward to my mom making. Here is a little spin of a childhood favorite THE CORN DOG.
Ingredients:
6 uncured hotdogs (Applegate is usually available at most stores)
½ Cup Coconut Flour
2 Tablespoon Coconut Oil (Melted)
½ Cup non-dairy Milk (Almond or Cashew Milk are good options)
½ Cup Almond Flour
2 Tablespoons Grass-fed Butter
2 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
3 Eggs
¼ Teaspoon Salt
½ Teaspoon Baking Soda
Instructions:
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a 12 cup muffin tin with parchment paper.
-
Cut each hotdog into 4 pieces and set each 2 pieces per cup in the muffin tin.
-
In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, butter, coconut oil, maple syrup, non-dairy milk, eggs, salt, and baking soda. Mix until combined and the batter is a smooth texture.
-
With a 1/3 cup divide the batter evenly among the 12 cup muffin tin.
-
Bake for 25-30 minutes until you can place a toothpick into the batter and no batter sticks.
-
Let sit for a couple of minutes to cool down.
-
Eat and enjoy with your favorite condiments!!!
