Yummy in my tummy! The best!

There’s something so nostalgically comforting about chicken wings, especially when they’re tucked under a sweet and tangy cherry glaze. This recipe brings back memories of picnics under wide Midwestern skies and family gatherings where food was the loving centerpiece. The cherry glaze, a nod to the bountiful summer harvests, makes these wings extra special. These Baked Cherry-Glazed Chicken Wings are perfect for any occasion where you want to bring a piece of tradition to the table.

These wings pair beautifully with a heaping bowl of creamy mashed potatoes or a crisp coleslaw, making the perfect balance between sweet and savory. If you’re in the mood for something heartier, serve them with some freshly baked cornbread to soak up every bit of that delicious glaze. And of course, a refreshing glass of iced tea or lemonade never goes amiss.
