Instructions
- If using butter put it in a small microwave safe bowl melt microwave it until it is melted.
- Add the seasonings to the melted butter or oil and stir to combine.
- Pat the legs dry with a paper towel. Brush the seasoning mixture all over the drumsticks. Pull the skin back and brush a little bit underneath.
- Use parchment paper in the bottom of the air fryer basket if desired to make cleanup easier.
- Put the legs in the air fryer basket and air fry at 390 for 25-30 minutes.
- The legs are done when they reach an internal temp of 165 degrees F. Always check the temperature with a meat thermometer, don't just go based on cooking time.
- If the drumsticks need more cooking time return them to the air fryer for another 5-10 minutes additional time and check the internal temp again.
- Let them rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
