Here’s the thing about wings: they’re the perfect low carb food because everyone goes kinda crazy for wings, they’re easy to make (just wait til you see my trick for extra-crispy skin), and the sauce options are endless!

We just recently shared our keto honey mustard recipe with you guys and I knew I wouldn’t be able to wait long before I’d be sharing these low carb honey mustard wings.

These taste like restaurant wings with the crispy skin (no deep-frying!!) and the saucy sauce, but you just bake them, toss them, devour them. Couldn’t be easier and even the non-keto peeps will love these!

3 Reasons You’ll Love These Keto Honey Mustard Wings:

They’re restaurant-quality crispy. The baking powder technique gives you that crackling crispy skin you’d expect from fried wings, but you’re just over there taking the easy route and turning on the oven. Love that.

The sauce is spot-on. Sweet, tangy, creamy, with just the right amount of mustard bite. We use this honey alternative instead of real honey to cut the carbs.

Feeds a crowd. Make a big batch of wings and sauce them different ways. Toss some in our homemade buffalo sauce and some in BBQ, as shown in our Baked BBQ Chicken Wings.

Ingredient, Swaps, and Tips:

Frozen Wings: We buy a bag of frozen chicken party wings (the drums and flats, not whole wings) and just thaw them out. Easy peasy.

About that baking powder: Make absolutely sure you’re using aluminum-free baking powder or your wings will taste metallic. It’s worth double-checking the label.

Dry those wings: I know it seems fussy, but really getting the wings dry with paper towels makes a huge difference in how crispy they get. Don’t skip this step.

Air fryer option: Want to use your air fryer instead? Cook at 400 degrees for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through. Then toss with sauce and air fry for another 3-5 minutes.

Sauce variations: The beauty of making wings at home is you can sauce them however you want. We obviously used our keto honey mustard here for keto honey mustard chicken wings, but you can also try our homemade buffalo sauce or these BBQ wings for variety.

Honey alternative options: We really love this Wholesome Yum honey alternative. It’s made with a mixture of allulose and monkfruit, both of which are clean sweeteners with no impact on blood glucose and zero net carbs.

Step by Step Instructions:

Pat dry the wings and toss them with baking powder, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to coat.

Bake the wings on a wire rack over a sheet pan for 40 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking.

Toss the baked wings in the keto honey mustard sauce to coat.

Return the wings to the oven for 5 minutes to get the sauce a bit sticky and warm before serving.

Helpful Tip!

Storage & Freezing:

Fridge life: Store leftover wings in an airtight container for up to 4 days. They reheat pretty well in the oven or air fryer (microwave works but they won’t be as crispy).

Reheating tips: For best results, reheat in a 400-degree oven for about 10 minutes or in the air fryer for 5-6 minutes. You want to bring back some of that crispy texture.

Make ahead: You can make the honey mustard sauce up to a week in advance and keep it in the fridge. The wings are definitely best fresh, but you can prep and season them a few hours ahead before baking.

Freezer situation: Personally not a big fan of freezing food that I’ve already bought frozen and then thawed (the wings).
