Crispy and flavorful air fryer buffalo wings, perfect for game nights or casual gatherings with less oil and mess.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds chicken wings (drums and flats; can be whole wings cut by a butcher)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1/3 to 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3–5 minutes.
  2. Pat the wings dry with paper towels.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the wings with olive oil, brown sugar, and buffalo sauce. Toss until evenly coated. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  4. Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, without overcrowding.
  5. Air fry at 400°F for 25–30 minutes, flipping once halfway through.
  6. Check doneness; internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  7. Serve hot, with extra buffalo sauce if desired.

Notes

For extra crispiness, allow wings to sit for 2-3 minutes after cooking. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days in the fridge.
