Corn tortillas wrapped around hot dogs with melted cheese inside. These Baked Corn Tortillas Cheese Dogs are crispy with every bite and fun to eat!
Hot dogs are a favorite in our home.
Typically hot dogs go great inside a bun.
But, how about a wrapped corn tortilla?
With cheese inside.
And, on a stick!
That’s exactly what I’ve done, my friends.
These Baked Corn Tortillas Cheese Dogs are a little out of the norm.
But, that’s how it is around here.
A little different.
And, fun!
You may say they are a cross between a burrito and a corn dog, maybe?
Little East comes home every day for lunch. So, I try to be a little creative and mix things up a bit. Do you know how picky a 7 year old can be?!
If and when he eats a hot dog, he prefers a stick in it.
I guess that makes it so much more fun, right?
Putting these Baked Corn Tortillas Cheese Dogs together are very simple.
Grab your favorite kind of hot dogs, some cheese, and corn tortillas.
And, don’t forget about the fun part… short wood skewers.
As Easton says, easy peasy!


- 4 hot dogs, any kind
- 4 slices cheese, any kind
- 4 corn tortillas
- 4 short wood skewers
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Heat corn tortillas in the microwave for 30 seconds between paper towels. (This will make them roll and bend without breaking.) Brush olive oil on the bottom side of each corn tortilla. Put a slice of cheese and hot dog on the top each one. Roll it together and tuck face down onto a nonstick covered baking sheet, so they will stay closed.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes in a 375 degrees oven.
- You may choose to put skewers in one end of the hot dog before or after baking time. I do both ways.
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
- Serves 4.

What is your favorite way to enjoy your hot dog?

Thank you, ladies!
I don’t like hot dogs. But these are the cutest, funnest, most delicious looking hot dogs I’ve ever seen. That is saying something. I think it is the burrito … 🙂 My siblings will love this! Pinning!

Mary Frances, I’m the same… not really a fan of hot dogs. I’m actually very picky if I do have one. Hope you’re having a fabulous day!
These look so neat! What a cute idea 🙂

I love this version of a corn dog, it’s so much more healthier and they are so cute!

These are such a great idea Gloria! I am going to try them for my kiddos! I think they would really enjoy them!

Nancy, if your kids are like mine…. they’ll eat anything a hot dog touches. Especially with a fun stick in the dog. 🙂
Gloria recently posted…Baked Corn Tortillas Cheese Dogs
Ok, these are so cool and so easy to make. My older son Blake (12) has such a liking for corn dogs and I hate that, so these are such a better alternative. I would gobble a couple down myself too! And by the way, Easton is on our name list for our new little guy due in 4 weeks.
Matt, I’m so big on the corn dogs, either. They are always under cooked when I buy them from somewhere… all doughy in the middle.
That is so fun! My East loves his name… especially when it’s time to hang out at the sports store and he has to have the cleats with his name on them, etc. (Kole is his middle name…. just like your little man, with a C.)

These look like really fun dogs.. tortillas..? whatever it is 😀

I love the whole look and idea of these. I love that they are on a stick too. I’m planning a 5 yr old birthday party for next month and these would be great!
Shannon @ Bake.Frost.Repeat recently posted…Golden Coconut Bars
Shannon, that would be a great idea with the 5 year olds! Besides, so easy to whip up along with everything else you have to do to get ready. Have so much fun!
Gloria, what a fun idea! These will be great for the summer and I know everyone loves food on sticks. 🙂 Pinning! Thanks for sharing and have a happy Wednesday!
Cindy Eikenberg recently posted…Groovy Candy Coated Oreos
Cindy, you’re right… food on a stick, in the summer time is so much fun! I’ve even grilled these before– very delish!
Gloria recently posted…Baked Corn Tortillas Cheese Dogs
Gloria I love this idea. I actually ate a hotdog in a corn tortilla once, but that was because I was out of bread and had already made all the hotdogs. Haha It worked, so I know these have to be delicious with that cheese 😀
Cindy @ Pick Fresh Foods recently posted…Homemade Sopapillas
My wife is going to go ga-ga over these! She LOVES hot dogs and is always excited when she can eat them in new exciting ways! These look great!!!
Chris @ Shared Appetite recently posted…{Slow Cooker} Chipotle Root Beer Beef Barbacoa
Thanks, Chris! Hot dogs are fun to be creative with!
Ryder loves food on a stick too! He’s love this, I kid you not, he eats at least one corn dog a day! I always love your pictures too, Gloria!
Paula recently posted…Citrus Marinated Grilled Chicken
Paula, you seriously just made my day! It’s funny how the boys go through their fun food stages. Easton was just asking me today, why do I have to keep making homemade chicken nuggets for his lunch when I should be just grabbing the Mickey Mouse nuggets bag at Costco! Because… my boys would devour the whole entire bag in one sitting. No lie. The whole baking sheet will be filled with those!
Gloria recently posted…Baked Corn Tortillas Cheese Dogs
Very cute idea. Pinned to my Lunch Ideas board!

Gloria recently posted…Baked Corn Tortillas Cheese Dogs
I’m kind of a sucker for corndogs, or pigs in a blanket or just a good old fashioned hot dog, so I’m totally loving these! So cute!
Nicole, so am I! We grew up on hot dogs because they were so cheap. But, now there is such a huge variety on healthy and/or beefy ones!
This is such a cute idea! It’s just like a corn dog, only easier. And with cheese! I bet my boys would love it.
Allie | Baking a Moment recently posted…Frozen Pineapple Cilantro Mojito for #MysteryDish
It’s a sure winner with boys… I only know because my house is full of them! Hope you’re having an enjoyable day, Allie!
Oh my gosh! These hot dog sticks are too cute, Gloria! Love how easy and mess-free they look. My family would be all over these. 🙂 pinned!

My kids would love this, Gloria! If a burrito and corn dog had a baby, I totally believe this is what you’d get!! LOL
Jamie, you never fail to make me laugh out loud!!! <3
Gloria recently posted…Baked Corn Tortillas Cheese Dogs
My kids are going to love these Gloria! What a fun lunch or dinner! I definitely will have to double if not triple the recipe for them though:)
Shannon {Cozy Country Living} recently posted…Homestyle Mashed Potatoes
Oh yes! These four were just for the teenager. I was lucky to have them photographed before he came home for lunch. Otherwise, they’d be gone before I put my camera ON. 🙂
It’s pretty funny how much I love hot dogs. My husband mentioned last week that we’ve been eating hot dogs quite a few times lately, so I decided to take a break this week. With Cinco de Mayo right around the corner, I’m pretty sure we’ll be having these on Monday to celebrate. Such a fabulous idea. Hope you’re doing well, dear!
Kathi @ Deliciously Yum! recently posted…Triple Chocolate & Peanut Butter Cookies
Kathi, you are too funny! My husband will get up in the middle of the night and make hot dogs… not one… but a few! I don’t know how he does it. We love hot dogs, too… but I like eating them in the daylight hours. hehe
Seriously genius idea!!! LOVE!!
Thank you, Gina! Hope you’re having a happy Thursday!
My mother used to make these for me and my siblings all the time! Instead of the stick, she would put a toothpick in the side to keep it from unrolling. We loved it when she made these! The melted cheese makes them oh so good! It’s been (um) decades since I’ve eaten one. I can’t wait to make these for my girls! Thank you for the memory!
Yvette, that is so amazing! Don’t you just love those memories?! I hope you are enjoying your weekend! 🙂
Gloria this is such a fun twist on corn dogs that’s perfect for Cinco de Mayo and for kids, I love this!

Kelly recently posted…Despicable Me Minion Birthday Party
My youngest thinks these are more fun than the old corn dog. Yours would, too! Hope you’re having a wonderful Saturday, Kelly!
So, this is pretty much the coolest idea ever, Gloria! 🙂 I love this- how fun! Pinned!

I LOVE your “fried not fried” food ideas! Normally I don’t care for corn tortillas, but I can imagine these taste pretty good! 😀 Def want to give them a try! Oh and I bet my boy would enjoy these, he loves all things hot dogs!
Heather {Woods of Bell Trees} recently posted…Organizing a Tiny Bathroom Closet
Thanks so much, Heather! Boys are so funny that way… my boys would love to live off hot dogs alone. 🙂
My little guys are going to love these! They rip half of the darn bun off anyways, so I know they will love this better anyways! You’re so clever!

Tahny, my boys have always torn the corn dog to pieces, too! It drives me crazy and makes me wonder whey I even bought the darn thing in the first place. Hope you’re having a wonderful evening!
Ahhh! this looks like so much fun to eat! Would be perfect for a game night in my home!
Connie | URBAN BAKES recently posted…Tres Leches Cake
Connie, I love food like this on game nights… thank you!
Super brilliant idea! Where do you come up with these awesome creations?! I have to admit that I’m not really a hot dog person, but my hubby, on the other hand…he’ll go nuts when he sees these and will beg me to make them for him. Of course I’ll happily comply. 🙂

Mallory, that sounds so much fun right now! Summer picnics are the best!
Wow, I have never seen anything like that before! Such a great idea with the tortillas 🙂 I think it would be a perfect starter at a barbecue party. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Have a nice day

Maja, what a great idea as a starter at a bbq party!
Thank you! What a creative idea! So glad I stopped by. I always need another idea for my little ones for lunch. We get tired of ham sandwiches!
Elizabeth recently posted…Tamale Pie: Cinco de Mayo Celebration!
Elizabeth, I totally hear you… I get so tired of making the same thing everyday for my youngest, too. Your kiddos would think these are fun!
You are a genius Gloria!! Those are so cool, I never would have thought to put a tortilla around a hot dog. Buns are always too thick, too much bread. This solves the problem. 😉
Lisa @ Cooking with Curls recently posted…Tiramisu Ice Cream
That’s so true, Lisa! Sometimes the bread/bun is way longer than the hot dog itself… issues! 🙂
Hi, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just wondering if you get
a lot of spam feedback? If so how do you prevent it, any plugin or anything you can advise?
I get so much lately it’s driving me mad so any support
is very much appreciated.
Fatima recently posted…Fatima
I use the plugin Akismet. It works great.. but sometimes I get a few that seems to sneak in. 🙂
These look absolutely awesome!! We love hot dogs in our house. & to top it off I am on a gluten free diet & this is a perfec alternative to a bun!! Yay!! Thank you for sharing 🙂
Tried this tonight – these are my absolute favorite way to eat hot dogs now. The tortilla gives a delightful crunch you don’t get with a corn dog, but you still get the great corn flavor. And, I don’t feel like I’m serving total garbage to my family (we all know hot dogs aren’t great for you). I made a spicy adobo-mustard dipping sauce that we all enjoyed and I can’t wait to try it again! Thank you thank you!!
These look great! My kids are not huge fans of sandwiches, but they prefer to take their lunches to school. They will love these!
I was wondering how a good beef hot dog would taste in corn tortilla as I’m greatly limiting my intake of flour/gluten foods.
I came upon your great idea, and thought, “DUH!”, of course a hot dog would taste good in a corn tortilla after all I LOVE corn dogs! 🙂
Thank you for the idea and for giving my sometimes dull skull a much needed wake up.
