Buffalo wings are a forever favorite for many people, even when football season is over and the Super Bowl has passed. This particular recipe is baked instead of fried, but they are just as crispy and delicious as what you’d order at a restaurant for takeout. Tossed in a classic, spicy sauce and served with ranch dressing, these buffalo wings’ irresistible crunch is made possible by plenty of baking powder and seasonings! Better yet, there is less mess to be cleaned up and fewer calories to be burned off afterward!
