- In a large bowl, whisk together buttermilk and dry marinade ingredients until combined. Add chicken wings and toss to coat. Refrigerate the wings in brine for at least 2 hours.
- In a large bowl, whisk together dry coating ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs. Remove wings from the brine. Coat wings in egg wash and then place in coating mixture, tossing wings until completely covered, and then placing on a baking sheet.
- Preheat your air fryer to 380°F. Spray the inside of the air fryer with avocado oil. Generously spray wings with avocado oil to coat and place wings in the air fryer. Fry for 15-20 minutes, checking wings every 5-6 minutes, turning and spraying with oil as needed. After 15-20 minutes, increase temperature to 400° F and cook for 5-10 minutes.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together sauce ingredients and add cooked wings in a large bowl with sauce, tossing wings until covered and garnishing with scallions, if desired.
