Pat wings dry thoroughly with paper towels.

Toss wings with baking powder, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

Preheat air fryer to 380°F.

Place wings in a single layer in the basket.

Cook at 380°F for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Increase temp to 400°F and cook for another 5–7 minutes.

Toss hot wings in buffalo sauce and melted butter.

Let rest for 2–3 minutes before serving.

Use baking powder—not baking soda—for best results.

For spicier wings, add cayenne to the seasoning mix.

Wings are best served immediately but can be stored and reheated.
