Gathering fresh ingredients ensures the best flavor:

  • Chicken wings: About 2 pounds fresh and cleaned.

Instructions
 

Get ready to create these tasty treats by following these steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Combine pumpkin spice mix, maple syrup, olive oil, salt, and pepper in the bowl.
  • Add the wings and toss until they're well-coated with the mixture.
  • Arrange wings on the baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, turning once halfway through.

Melt butter and drizzle over the wings before serving.

      Notes

      A few tips to perfect these wings:
      Marinate longer for a stronger pumpkin spice flavor.
      Adjust spiciness by adding or reducing cayenne.
      These wings are best served warm, fresh out of the oven.
      Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to two days.
      Consider serving with a cooling dip like ranch or blue cheese for added flavor. 🥣
      These Pumpkin Spice Chicken Wings are sure to be a crowd-pleaser! 😋
