Since drumsticks are the most affordable type of bird out there here's an easy method to making fried drum sticks in the air fryer, mind you I don't really cook with measurements unless baking.

What you'll need:
Chicken Drumsticks
Eggs
Panko or prefered bread crumbs
(Choice of spices)
Paprika
Salt & pepper
Garlic powder

Pat dry the drumsticks with paper towels.
Generousily sprinkle prefered spices onto chicken.

Beat 2 to 3 eggs depending on the amount you have.

Dip drumsticks into egg then coat with breadcrumbs as follows

Coat air fry basket with choice of spray oil:
390F at 20 minutes.

Those look really good. I would personally cook them a little longer because that chicken looks pretty pink, that crust however looks amazing. Great job!

I tried 25 minutes and it came out a little burnt, depends on the weight of the chicken also.

I blanche/parboil the drumsticks before breading and frying them, it makes the skin crispier and you don't have to fry as long so the breadcrumbs don't burn.
