Begin by patting the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. This will help them become crispier.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the baking powder, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix well to create the seasoning blend.
Add the chicken wings to the bowl with the seasoning blend. Drizzle with olive oil and toss until the wings are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Preheat the air fryer to 400Β°F (200Β°C). This usually takes about 3-5 minutes depending on your air fryer model.
Arrange the seasoned chicken wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Ensure there is space between each wing for the air to circulate properly.
Cook the wings in the preheated air fryer for 25 minutes. Halfway through the cooking time, around the 12-minute mark, open the air fryer and carefully flip the wings over with tongs to ensure even cooking.
Once the wings are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the air fryer and allow them to rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the crispy gluten-free wings with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them plain.
