Super Flavorful Baked Chicken Wings
Baked Honey Mustard Chicken Wings are crisp, sweet and tangy. With a hint of spice from the spicy brown mustard in the glaze, they’re so flavorful. Both adults and kids love them! Served with honey mustard sauce, they’re the perfect wing experience.
Juicy and Delicious Wings!
I love chicken wings! Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside with endless flavor opportunities. My favorite way to make chicken wings is to bake them with a crispy coating on the outside. They’re easy to make and they turn out so great!
Some of our favorites are my Baked Chicken Wings recipe, these Baked Crispy Asian Chicken Wings. And this honey mustard version I’m sharing with you today is one of our absolute must makes! They’re always such a huge hit when I make them for a hungry football watching crowd.

How to Make Baked Honey Mustard Chicken Wings
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Set a wire rack on the baking sheet and coat it with cooking spray.
- Combine flour, garlic salt and black pepper in a resealable gallon-sized plastic bag and shake to mix.
- Add chicken wings, seal and toss until well coated in the flour mixture.
- Place the wings onto the prepared baking sheet rack and place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

- Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and they’re crispy on the outside, about 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, make the honey mustard glaze. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, yellow mustard and spicy brown mustard until smooth and of drizzling consistency.
- Remove 1/2 cup of the glaze mixture to a separate small mixing bowl and whisk it with 1/3 cup mayonnaise to make the dipping sauce.
- Place the dipping sauce in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Remove the baked wings from the oven and let cool for about 5 minutes before dipping each one in the glaze and coating it completely.
- Place wings back on the baking sheet rack.
- Return wings to the oven for 10 minutes to let the glaze caramelize onto the coating of the wings.
- Serve with the honey mustard dipping sauce.
How to Store Honey Mustard Chicken Wings
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat leftover chicken wings, re-crisp them in the air fryer, oven or under the broiler until heated through and crisp again.

How would I go about doing this with chicken legs? I have drumsticks to be used. And could I possibly sub syrup for honey?
Hi Chastity! You could prepare the recipe the same way using chicken legs, you’d just need to bake them longer since the legs are bigger. And you could definitely substitute syrup for the honey. That would be delicious! Enjoy!
How important is the Spicy Brown Mustard? Is there a substitute? Don’t have it..
Hi! The spicy brown mustard is used for flavor and a little spice, but you could use all yellow mustard or substitute it with any other mustard variety you might have on hand. Hope this helps! Enjoy!
Made these tonight for TNF (ThursdayNightFootball) with babe , O-M-G !!! The ENTIRE family loved them and that’s saying a lot because the Mr doesn’t care for baked chicken unless the skin is crisp, this recipe definitely delivered! Will be reusing- maybe next time we will have them with fries lol
