Baked Buffalo Wings
Description
This Baked Buffalo Wings recipe starts by tossing chicken wings with baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. The baking powder promotes crispiness when baked on a rack at 400 degrees for 45 minutes until lightly golden and crispy. A foil-lined pan with a rack allows air circulation to aid in crisping the skin.
After baking, the wings are tossed in a sauce made by whisking together hot sauce, melted butter, and honey, creating a balance of heat, richness, and subtle sweetness. Serving the wings with celery sticks and ranch dressing provides a cooling contrast and traditional accompaniment to Buffalo wings.
This recipe avoids deep frying yet achieves crispy texture and classic Buffalo flavor through oven cooking and a simple sauce. It works well as a snack, appetizer, or game day dish, offering a straightforward method to make flavorful, crispy wings in the oven.
