Apricot Palm Coconut Sugar Wings

2 pounds chicken wings

2 T apricot balsamic vinegar (if you can’t find apricot, any fruit vinegar will do)

2 T palm coconut sugar

1 t powdered chipotle

1 t onion powder

1/2 t garlic powder

1 t salt

freshly ground pepper to taste

olive oil

Place wings in a large bowl and toss them with the vinegar.  In a small bowl combine the sugar, chipotle, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, mix well.  Pour the spices on the wings and rub to coat the wings.  Cover and let sit room temperature for an hour.  If you have longer to let the wings macerate, cover them and refrigerate until ready to cook.

When ready to cook, heat the oven to 375.  Line a jelly roll pan with tin foil and brush with olive oil.  Pour the wings onto the pan and arrange in a single layer.  Place in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until wings are browned and caramelized.
