Recipe:

Ingredients: For the Wings:

  • 2 pounds chicken wings, separated into drumettes and flats
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Cooking oil for frying (such as avocado oil or coconut oil)

For the Buffalo Sauce:

  • 1/2 cup hot sauce (such as Frank’s RedHot)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to create the coating mixture for the wings.
  3. Dip each chicken wing into the coating mixture, ensuring it is fully coated. Place the coated wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Once all the wings are coated, bake them in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until they are crispy and cooked through.
  5. While the wings are baking, prepare the buffalo sauce. In a separate bowl, combine the hot sauce, melted butter, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper (if using). Mix well to combine.
  6. Once the wings are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
  7. Dip each wing into the buffalo sauce, ensuring it is fully coated. Place the sauced wings on a separate platter or baking sheet.
  8. If desired, you can broil the sauced wings for a few minutes to achieve a caramelized finish.
  9. Serve the Keto Buffalo Wild Wings hot with celery sticks and your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce (such as ranch or blue cheese).
