Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a seasoning rub.
Pat the drumsticks dry with paper towels and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Pour the seasoning rub over the drumsticks and massage until each piece is evenly coated.
Arrange the seasoned drumsticks in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the drumsticks from the oven and brush them generously with the gluten-free BBQ sauce.
Return the drumsticks to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the skin is crispy and caramelized.
Once cooked, garnish the drumsticks with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve the gluten-free BBQ drumsticks hot and enjoy!
