If you are on the Whole30, you will need to ensure that your hot sauce is Whole30 compliant like this one.

How to make Air Fryer Buffalo Wings

To make these Whole30 air fryer buffalo wings start by tossing your chicken wings and drumettes in oil – I use avocado oil. Then, season the wings liberally on all sides with salt and pepper.

Next, place the wings on your air fryer rack with space between each wing. You may need to do more than one batch of wings to ensure there is enough space.

Then, cook your wings at 350F in the air fryer for 15 minutes. Depending on the size of your wings, you may need more or less time so check them a few times as they cook.

While the wings cook, to prepare the buffalo sauce by combining the hot sauce and the ghee over medium-low heat in a sauce pan. Then, whisk the sauce vigorously to combine the ghee and buffalo sauce.

Next, with the wings still warm from the air fryer, coat them in the buffalo sauce.
