Air Fryer Buffalo Wings
Description
This recipe uses about a pound of chicken wings seasoned simply with salt and black pepper. Cooking in the air fryer at 400°F crisps the wings in about 20 minutes total, flipping halfway through to ensure even browning. Once cooked, tossing them with buffalo sauce coats them in a classic spicy glaze.
The air fryer technique reduces oil use while maintaining a crispy texture and juicy inside. Proper spacing in the basket allows hot air circulation for crisping. When preparing larger batches, cooking in smaller batches preserves texture. Reheating is possible in the air fryer to restore crispness after initial cooking.
The wings are best served immediately, as the crispy exterior is most pronounced right after tossing with the buffalo sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken wings
- ⅓ cup buffalo sauce
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 400°F.

- Cook for 10 minutes. Flip the wings and cook an additional 9-11 minutes or until crispy.
- Place wings in a large bowl and toss with buffalo sauce. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Preheat the air fryer before cooking for best results.
- Arrange wings in a single layer with space for air circulation to crisp evenly.
- For larger quantities, cook wings in batches; heat all wings briefly before saucing.
- Reheat cooked wings in the air fryer at 400°F for 3-4 minutes to regain crispness.
