Notes
Depending on your air fryer, you may not be able to cook at 390°F. You can cook the wings at 400°F for 16-18 minutes.
Every air fryer is different, so the wings may need additional time to get them to your desired level of crispness. Cook until your desired level of crispness and wings have reached an internal temperature of 165°F.
