  • 1 tbsp baking powder (not soda)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • Your favorite sauce, to toss

Method

  1. 1

    Pat the wings very dry, then toss with baking powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Preheat the air fryer to 400°F, then drop a Vailnd 8" square liner into the basket.

  3. 3

    Arrange the wings in a single layer on the liner, leaving space between each.

  4. 4

    Air fry 22–24 minutes, flipping halfway, until deep golden and crisp.

  5. 5

    Lift the liner out, toss the wings in sauce, and serve. Wipe the basket — no scrubbing.
