Honey Bbq Wings

Instructions
- Prep: Remove the tips of chicken wings and split them at the joint. Pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel. In a large bowl, toss chicken wings with 1 tablespoon baking powder (NOT BAKING SODA!) and a dash of salt and pepper. Transfer to the air-fryer basket and place in the air fryer.
- Air Fry: Cook at 375F for 25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking time. Increase the temperature to 420F or the highest setting and bake for another 5 minutes or until the skin is crispy and brown. Remove from air fryer and immediately toss in the wing sauce of choice.
- To Make Garlic Parmesan Wings: Cook garlic in butter then turn off the heat and pour it into a large mixing bowl. Add the remaining ingredients along with the wings to the bowl and toss.
- To Make Buffalo Wings: Cook butter with garlic for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and pour into a large bowl. Add hot sauce and salt. Stir in wings.
- To Make Honey BBQ wings: Simmer all ingredients in a small pot or pan. Transfer to a bowl and toss in wings.
Notes
- Serve with a side of blue cheese or ranch dressing and chopped celery and carrots.
- You will need a large air-fryer in order to cook wings in one batch in a single layer. This is our preferred air-fryer.
