Instructions

1
Dry and season. Pat the wings very dry with paper towels. Toss with baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
2
Preheat. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F for about 3 minutes.
3
First cook. Arrange the wings in a single layer with a little room between them. Cook at 380°F for 24 minutes, shaking or turning every 6-8 minutes.
4
Crisp finish. Increase the heat to 400°F and cook 5-8 minutes more, until deeply browned and crisp.
5
Check doneness. Wings are safe at 165°F, but the best wing texture is usually around 175-185°F because the connective tissue softens more fully.
6
Sauce and serve. Toss immediately with your preferred sauce, or serve dry with ranch, blue cheese, celery, or carrots.
