Instructions

Pat the wings dry so there is no moisture. Spray the air fryer basket with oil.
Bake them on a rack 425°F for 45 minutes, flipping halfway.
In a large bowl, season the wings with salt, spices and baking powder to coat well.
Transfer the wings to the air fryer basket in a single layer, in batches as needed and air fry 400F 16 to 22 minutes, shaking the basket halfway.

Notes

Note, cook time varies greatly by air fryer and by how much food is in the basket.So cook according to your desired crispness. If your air fryer is too small to do this in a single layer, you can cook them in one batch, and just add 10 to 15 minutes to the cook time and shake the basket 4 to 5 times while cooking.
There are so many ways to switch up this basic recipe! Just add your favorite wing sauce. Here's a few ideas:
Garlic Parmesan: Toss wings in a touch of melted butter, minced garlic, and grated Parmesan cheese, then finish with a sprinkle of parsley.
Buffalo Wing Sauce: Omit the salt. Once cooked, coat the chicken in a tangy mix of Franks hot sauce and a little melted butter for that classic spicy flavor. See this buffalo wing recipe for seasoning.
Honey Sriracha: Sweet and spicy! Combine honey, Sriracha, soy sauce, and a bit of lime juice for a sticky glaze during the last minute of air frying.
Lemon Pepper Wings: Replace the spices with lemon pepper for a zesty, peppery kick.
Teriyaki: Marinate the wings in soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic, then bake until caramelized.
BBQ: Toss the chicken with your favorite BBQ sauce for a sweet and smoky finish.
Cajun Spice: Swap the spices out for Cajun seasoning, paprika, garlic powder, and a dash of cayenne for a spicy, bold flavor.
Korean Gochujang: Glaze the wings at the end with a mix of gochujang (Korean chili paste), soy sauce, sesame oil, and a touch of honey for a savory, spicy, and slightly sweet flavor.
