Ingredients

  • 4 hot dogs
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella works well)
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a bowl, mix the almond flour, shredded cheese, and egg until a thick batter forms that can stick to the hot dogs.
  2. Step 2: Carefully wrap the batter around each hot dog, covering it evenly to form a coating.
  3. Step 3: Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place the coated hot dogs into the air fryer basket, ensuring they don’t touch.
  4. Step 4: Air fry for 8-10 minutes or until the coating is crispy and golden brown, turning halfway through for even cooking.
  5. Step 5: Remove from the air fryer and let cool slightly before serving.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of garlic powder or smoked paprika to the batter.
  • Use different cheeses to vary the taste, such as pepper jack for a spicy kick.
  • Serve with keto-friendly mustard or sugar-free ketchup for dipping.
  • If the batter is too thick, add a little water or almond milk to help it stick better.

Storage

Store leftover keto corn dogs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 3-4 minutes to restore crispiness.

FAQs

Can I use regular flour instead of almond flour?

You can, but using almond flour keeps the recipe low-carb and keto-friendly. Regular flour will change the nutritional profile and texture.

Can I bake these instead of air frying?

Yes, bake them in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 12-15 minutes, turning halfway to crisp the coating evenly.

Ingredients

  • 4 hot dogs
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  1. Prepare the batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, shredded cheese, and egg. Mix thoroughly until a thick, dough-like batter forms that can easily stick to the hot dogs.
  2. Coat the hot dogs: Take each hot dog and evenly wrap the batter around it, fully covering the surface with a generous, even layer to ensure a crispy crust after cooking.
  3. Preheat the air fryer: Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to preheat for about 3-5 minutes for optimal cooking temperature.
  4. Air fry the corn dogs: Place the batter-coated hot dogs into the air fryer basket, ensuring they are spaced apart to allow for even air circulation. Cook for 10-12 minutes or until the batter is golden brown and crisp, turning halfway through if necessary for even cooking.
  5. Serve: Remove the corn dogs carefully, let them cool slightly, and serve warm with your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce or mustard.

Notes

  • Make sure the batter is thick enough to cling to the hot dogs; if it’s too thin, add a little more almond flour.
  • Experiment with different cheeses for varying flavor profiles.
  • If your air fryer model requires it, lightly grease the basket to prevent sticking.
  • Check doneness at 10 minutes to avoid overcooking.
  • To keep the batter from slipping, chill the batter-coated hot dogs in the fridge for 5 minutes before air frying.
