4 servings
For the wings
- 2 lb chicken wings, split into flats and drumettes, tips removed
- 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- 1 tsp fine sea salt
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
Ingredient noteTurmeric can trigger interstitial cystitis symptoms in some people, but the small amount in this recipe (~1/4 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid turmeric, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ½ tsp ground ginger
Ingredient noteInterstitial cystitis treats warming spices like ginger as test-your-tolerance because they can irritate a sensitive bladder, but the small amount in this recipe (~1/8 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid ground ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
For the sauce
- ¼ cup coconut aminos
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp honey
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
Ingredient noteFresh ginger is generally considered bladder-friendly, and the small amount in this recipe (~1/4 tsp per serving) is likely fine for many people with interstitial cystitis. If you prefer to always avoid fresh ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 tsp arrowroot starch
- 1 tsp coconut oil
For serving

Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, working in batches if needed to avoid crowding. Air fry at 400°F (205°C) for 12 minutes, then flip the wings with tongs and cook for another 10–13 minutes, until the skin is deep golden and crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a drumette (not touching bone) reads 165°F (74°C).
