Ingredients
To recreate this delightful dish, you’ll need a handful of simple ingredients that come together to create something spectacular. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup fresh peaches, pureed
- 1/4 cup hot honey (or regular honey with a pinch of cayenne pepper)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon butter
If fresh peaches aren’t in season, feel free to use canned peaches—just be sure to drain them well. For those who like an extra kick, increase the cayenne pepper in the honey mix.

Ready to dive into the culinary adventure? Follow these steps to create your own batch of Hot Honey Peach Wings:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Spread them out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
- Bake the wings for 35-40 minutes, turning them halfway through, until they are crispy and golden brown.
- While the wings are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the peach puree, hot honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir until the mixture comes to a simmer.
- Add the butter to the glaze mixture and let it melt, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Once the wings are done, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the hot honey peach glaze over the wings, tossing well to ensure each wing is coated with the sticky, flavorful sauce.
- Transfer the glazed wings back onto the baking sheet, and broil them for an additional 2-3 minutes to caramelize the glaze, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
With each step, I’m reminded of the excitement of trying new recipes with my mother, who always encouraged a dash of creativity and a sprinkle of love in every dish.
