Recipe – Easy Oven Chicken Drumsticks!

I’ve shared a recipe before on making buffalo drumsticks using a crockpot, but what if the oven is more your thing? Try this recipe! This time, I used buffalo sauce, but you can also use BBQ sauce. I think this is a great watching football food!  And it makes as little or as much as you want.  Plus, drumsticks are a pretty inexpensive way to eat chicken.

Ingredients

  • Sauce (Buffalo or BBQ)
  • Drumsticks (as many as you want – I’d plan on 2-3 per adult, depending on what else you’re serving.)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Spray baking dish with cooking spray. Use an 8×8 if you’re only making a few. Or, use a 9×13 or even a couple of them.
  • Add some sauce to the bottom of the dish. Don’t completely cover it, but you want some sauce on there.
  • Add the drumsticks on top.
  • Put more sauce on top of the drumsticks. No need to drown them, just brush the sauce on.
  • Bake for 1 hour, flipping them over about ½ way through. Check them for doneness when the time is over. It might take a little longer if you’re making a lot.
  • Add more sauce, if desired in the last 5-10 minutes of baking.
  • Enjoy!
