Air Fried Buffalo Chicken Tenders
10 mins prepServes 4
Crispy air-fried chicken tenders with a buffalo flavoring, perfect for football season or a quick meal. Made with almond flour for a healthier, paleo-friendly option. Can be paired with vegan nacho cheese or other dips.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
In a shallow bowl, whisk 2 eggs. In another shallow bowl, mix together the almond flour, garlic powder, sea salt, paprika, and onion powder.
Take the chicken tenders and dip them first into the egg mixture, ensuring they are fully coated, then transfer them to the almond flour mixture, pressing to coat completely.
Add the coated chicken tenders to your air fryer basket. You may need to cook in two batches to avoid overlapping and ensure even crisping.
Bake for 6 minutes, then flip the tenders and bake for another 6 minutes, or until cooked through and crispy.
Remove the chicken tenders from the air fryer and brush generously with hot sauce.
Enjoy immediately, optionally paired with vegan cheese or your favorite dip.
