Baked Buffalo Wings

Hey y’all! 🌞
Gorgeous sunny weather here on the West Coast this morning! But let me tell you — our house is a hot mess.

We’ve got a leak in our upstairs bathroom sink, and it’s turned the main floor into a wind tunnel with two industrial fans and a dehumidifier roaring 24/7. It’s like living in an airport hangar! ✈️

We’ll be moving out soon for plumbing, drywall, and floor replacements… but I’m already looking forward to the “new” and “quiet” home when we return.

BUT! I am still cookin’ — because that’s what I do.
I cook, and I know stuff. That’s my superpower. 💪🍗

So last night I whipped up these Baked Buffalo Wings — and they are now my new go-to for all things Buffalo. So buttery, not too spicy, and absolutely finger-lickin’ perfect.

And if you do find them spicy (looking at you, Sharon 😘), just dip ‘em in Ranch! Or… dip ‘em in Ranch anyway. Because why not?

Make them, Bite them, and thank me later.

Ingredients 🍗

The “stuff”…

  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 20 chicken wings (I had 26 — flatties & drummies, of course)
  • ½ cup melted butter
  • ½ cup hot pepper sauce (Frank’s RedHot all the way!)

Instructions 👩‍🍳

What to do with “the stuff”…

  1. Prep: Line a baking sheet with foil or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
  2. Coat: In a large resealable bag, combine flour, cayenne, garlic powder, and salt. Add wings, seal, and toss until well coated.
  3. Chill: Place wings on the baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 1 hour — I did 2 hours because I’m fancy like that 🥴. 💡 Pro tip: This makes the flour coating sticky so the sauce clings perfectly. Don’t skip this step!
  4. Sauce: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Whisk together melted butter and hot sauce in a small bowl.
  5. Bake: Dip wings in the butter mixture, return to the baking sheet, and bake for 25 minutes. Flip wings, crank oven to 425°F, and bake another 25 minutes until crispy and golden.
  6. Serve: Plate ‘em up, grab your Ranch (or blue cheese if you’re fancy), and Bite them!

Notes 📝

  • Want extra saucy wings? Double the butter/hot sauce mix.
  • These reheat like a dream in the air fryer.
  • Perfect for game day, Friday nights, or when you just need to feel like a snack legend.
