How to Make Frankfurters In A Loaf

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Grease a 9x5x3 inch loaf pan.
  3. Split each frankfurter lengthwise, almost all the way through, leaving about 1/4 inch uncut at the bottom to hold it together.
  4. Fill each frankfurter with a strip of cheese (cheddar, pepper jack, or your favorite) or about 1 teaspoon of your preferred cheese spread.
  5. Add a small amount of relish or ketchup to each frankfurter (optional).
  6. In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1/2 cup milk, and 1 large egg. Beat with a fork for 30 seconds until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  8. Arrange the prepared frankfurters crosswise on top of the batter, gently curling them to fit the pan and pressing them slightly into the dough.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the internal temperature of the frankfurters reaches 160°F (71°C).
