Different from the previous recipe, I added curry powder in the recipe to give the wings a nice flavor. You can see the hot&sweet sauce I made for this recipe there. Plus, you’ll witness how we enjoyed these scrumptious buffalo wings at the end of it. I couldn’t count how many I ate!
Crispy Buffalo Wings can definitely be made in oven. I’ve made these in oven and they are as good as deep-fried wings. You will be amazed when you see that these are wonderfully crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The recipe is pretty simple. You will be successful even if you have little experience of cooking or no experience at all. I have the same crispy and juicy result every time I make these and they are life saver when you have guests for dinner or for a game party.
These crispy buffalo wings have a secret ingredient that makes them that perfect. Did I tell you how simple the ingredients are? Don’t worry for that secret ingredient that makes the magic, I’m sure you always have it in your kitchen. Ok, I’m talking about baking powder. Have you ever used it for something different from cake or pie kind of thing? I sometimes really love the chemistry behind cooking. It simply helps the wings to get crispy. You can even watch it when they are in oven, you’ll see how their skin rises and sizzles, which results in a crispy surface.
Nobody realizes the baking powder addition on these wings, it doesn’t taste at all. These incredible buffalo wings are flavored with garlic and chili. Sounds flavorsome, doesn’t it?
After seeing that it’s possible to make crispy buffalo wings in oven, you’ll no longer want to fry them. No mess in the kitchen. Something we all want, right?
I’ll be honest. I don’t use fork or knife when eating these crispy buffalo wings. I use my hands and yes lick my fingers after cleaning the bone perfectly. Isn’t it the fun part of eating wings?

This sounds so good! Buffalo wings are my favorite and I can ever get them crispy enough without making them like fried chicken! Thanks for sharing, I can’t wait to try these 🙂
These were absolutely delicious and tasted fried! This is going in my rotation as the whole family loved it! Thank you!
Image these wings tonight and the were delicious! The best wings I ever had. They were easy to make, too. I did make a dipping sauce to go with them, with butter, real maple syrup, and Frank’s Hot Sauce, which was a great acompliment to the wings. My husband and I plan on having them again. Kudos on this recipe!
Hi Marily! So happy to hear that you loved the recipe. No need for frying or grilling wings any longer as these are really good yet simple. And your dipping sauce sounds amazing!
Is the mixture supposed to be watery or kinda dry?
Hi Priscilla, it is not a watery mixture.
Wow, outstanding thanks

Can you do this with frozen wings? We put frozen wings on the grill and they’re great. It’s too cold to grill now so I’m just wondering if we could bake these from frozen. Thanks! Sounds delicious!
Well, never tried it with frozen wings. But I guess you can bake them, maybe at a higher degree. Would love to hear the result if you try.
trying these right now, in the oven as we speak. Can’t wait to eat them!!
Baking powder!, Who would have thought.. I have been trying to come up with a recipe to bake wings instead of frying and still have them turn out crispy. Trying to cut back a bit on the grease/fat/cals. Will certainly give this a shot the next time I make wings.
Baking powder is magical, isn’t it? You’ll be amazed when you try.
