Help! My corn dog batter keeps falling off. What am I doing wrong?

Help! My corn dog batter keeps falling off. What am I doing wrong? Every time I attempt to make homemade corn dogs, the batter just won't stick! Any seasoned corn dog makers out there with tips or tricks to help me nail down that perfect crispy coating?

I hear you ..it's so frustrating when the batter won't stick! I think it might be because the hot dogs are too wet or the batter is too thin

Try drying the hot dogs with paper towels before dipping and make sure the batter is thick enough to coat evenly!

Oh no! It sounds like your corn dog batter might need a little help sticking. Make sure your hot dogs are dry before dipping, and try chilling the batter for a bit before dipping. Hope that helps!

When you're dipping the hot dogs in the batter, try to do it quickly but evenly. You want a nice even coating all around the hot dog to ensure that it cooks up crispy and delicious.
