Begin by patting the chicken wings dry with paper towels. Ensuring they are dry will help achieve great crispiness.
In a large bowl, combine the baking powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and onion powder.
Toss the chicken wings in the dry mixture using your hands, ensuring all wings are evenly coated on both sides.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
Once preheated, arrange the chicken wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Make sure not to overcrowd; cook them in batches if necessary.
Cook the wings for 12 minutes, then open the air fryer and flip them over to ensure even crisping.
Continue cooking for an additional 10-13 minutes or until the wings are golden brown and crispy on both sides.
Check for doneness by ensuring the internal temperature of the chicken wings reaches 165°F (75°C) using a kitchen thermometer.
Serve the crispy air-fried chicken wings hot with your favorite keto-friendly dips or sauces.
