Pat wings completely dry with paper towels.
Toss with baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in a bowl.
Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for 3 minutes.
Place wings in a single layer in the basket.
Air fry for 24 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Increase temperature to 400°F (204°C) and air fry for 5 more minutes for extra crispiness.
If using sauce, toss wings with melted butter and your favorite sauce before serving.
Serve hot with ranch, blue cheese, or extra sauce on the side!
