    Corn Muffin Hot Dog Sliders

    Prep time: 20 minutes

    Cook time: 10 minutes

    Servings: 6 (2 sliders per serving)

                Nonstick cooking spray

    1          cup all-purpose flour

    1          cup yellow cornmeal

    1/2       teaspoon baking soda

    1/4       teaspoon salt

    1          cup buttermilk

    1/2       cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted

    1/3       cup sugar

    2          large eggs

    6          Coleman Natural Beef Hot Dogs, cut into coins or sliced on bias, 1/2-inch thick

    1          cup baby arugula

    mustard, for garnish (optional)

    ketchup, for garnish (optional)

    relish, for garnish (optional)

    Preheat oven to 375 F. Lightly coat 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.

    In large bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, baking soda and salt. In separate bowl, whisk buttermilk, butter, sugar and eggs. Pour wet mixture over dry ingredients and stir until moist.

    Scoop batter into each muffin tin cup until halfway full. Bake 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown.

    Remove pan from oven and cool on wire rack 10-15 minutes before removing muffins from pan.

    In large skillet over medium heat, cook hotdog slices, turning occasionally with fork until slightly browned.

    Slice each muffin in half horizontally, add arugula and hot dog slices then garnish with mustard, ketchup and relish, if desired.

    Substitution: Use store-bought corn muffin mix rather than making corn muffins from scratch, if desired.
