Get ready to enjoy these extra crispy air fryer buffalo wings. They are perfect for any occasion and a better alternative than deep frying in oil. Pair these wings with air fryer fries, a veggie platter, and your favorite dipping sauces. They are perfect for any occasion and make a great appetizer or game-day snack.

I used the Ninja 2-Basket Air Fryer with DualZone Technology. I love the Ninja’s ability to cook 2 different foods at the same time. This air fryer has 6 cooking functions that allow you to air fry, air broil, roast, bake, reheat, or dehydrate.

While cooking your crispy air fryer buffalo wings in one basket you could be roasting your favorite veggie simultaneously in the second basket. Clean-up is a breeze due to the nonstick coating in the baskets.

The biggest cons I noticed with using the Ninja air fryer are the baskets are a little small in size depending on your needs, and if you fill one of the baskets up, you will need to periodically flip your food to make sure the food cooks evenly.

Overall the air fryer is very user-friendly and great quality.
