Gluten Free Corn Dog Muffins

One of the things that the boys have missed with the Gluten Free Fast is Corn Dogs. We only have them once in a while, but even so I decided to make an alternative for them. We got rid of our deep fryer years ago, so I decided to pull out one of my favorite recipes and alter it.

I’ve made Corn Dog Muffins for a few years, they are even famous at our church potlucks, kids just love them. Plus they are really easy to make.

My absolute favorite recipe for cornbread really helps making them amazing! I found the Grandmother’s Buttermilk Cornbread Recipe on Food.com years ago and it is my go to cornbread recipe. I got Bob’s Old Mill Gluten Free Flour from Costco the other day and decided to try it with this recipe.

Personally TJ & I could tell a difference with the gluten free flour, but the boys gobbled them up.  I have found that they don’t seem to mind some of the differences in gluten free items like TJ and I. I wonder if that is due to the fact that the boys are still learning new flavors and textures, but as adults TJ and I just know it is different.
