Take chicken from the fridge and place each piece onto a wire rack to let excess buttermilk drip off. Don't pat chicken dry with a paper towel. You need the flour to stick to the chicken
Place one piece at a time into the flour mixture and cover with flour. A kitchen hack I know is to put the lid on the mixing bowl and toss the chicken inside. It's quicker and less messy. Shake off anyyexcess flour and add the breaded chicken to another clean wire rack
If you know how many chicken drumsticks your air fryer can hold then only add that many to the flour mixture, and just repeat this procedure untillall of your drumsticks are cooked
Lastly, baste a small amount of your chosen oil around the chicken so you don't see any flour. Don't worry about the bottom as this is done once the chicken has cooked through half-way
Turn your air-fryer to the chicken setting and set a temperature of 375°F (190°C) for 26 minutes
With 13 minutes remaining or at the half-way point, pause your air-fryer and turn the chicken over basting any remaining flour with a small amount of oil
Restart your air-fryer for the remaining cooking time
Once the chicken is cooked place it on a wire rack and allow to cool before eating. repeat steps 2-8 if more chicken is required and ENJOY!!!
