- Baking Instructions
- Although we really think the air fryer makes the best tasting wings, we understand not everyone has one. So we've provided alternative baking instructions that still make delicious wings!
- Preheat your oven to 400˚F. Still coat wings in salt, pepper and baking powder. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a cooling rack and top with coated wings (spaced about 1 inch apart). Bake wings for 35 to 40 minutes or until cooked through (and internal temperature of the wings reach 165˚F). Remove from heat and toss with prepared buffalo sauce.
- Don't skip out on the baking powder. As we just mentioned above it really helps to create a crisp texture on the skin, allowing the sauce to adhere to the wings nicely.
- Allow at least 1/2 inch of space between each wing in the air fryer so the wings crisp up evenly (and don't steam from lack of air circulation).
- Flip the wings halfway through air frying to evenly crisp and brown both sides.
