Mini corn dogs and the traditional pigs in a blanket are popular party items. This recipe provides a new variation on these appetizer wiener treats with pancake mix used as the batter instead of pastry or a corn meal mix batter. Call it the northern corn dog it brings a different texture and flavor to your party from the traditional mini corn dog or pigs in a blanket.
This works for breakfast too. Just change the sauce out for some maple syrup or maple butter dipping sauce. A great breakfast treat for the kids or even a brunch easy pick up.
