Maple Wings 🍗🍁
Bring game day flavor home! Make crispy wings in your oven or air fryer, then toss them in a simple maple sweet and spicy sauce.
Ingredients
• 3 pounds chicken wings
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons neutral oil, such as canola or avocado
• ¼ cup Balsam Ridge Dark Robust Maple Syrup
• ¼ cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons hot sauce
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 1 tablespoon minced ginger
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 425°F or the air fryer to 400°F.
2. Pat the wings dry with paper towels. Toss them with the baking powder and salt.
3. Add the oil and toss to coat. Arrange the wings on a lined baking sheet or in an air fryer basket, leaving space between each piece.
4. Cook until crisp and cooked through, about 35–45 minutes in the oven or 20–25 minutes in the air fryer. Check that the wings reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
5. While the wings cook, combine the maple syrup, soy sauce, hot sauce, garlic, and ginger in a small saucepan.
6. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and cook for 5–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
7. Transfer the hot wings to a clean bowl. Pour the sauce over the wings and toss to coat.
8. Garnish with scallions or sesame seeds, if desired. Serve immediately!
For milder wings, use less hot sauce. For extra heat, add more to taste.
