How long to bake chicken drumsticks?

The baking time for chicken drumsticks can vary depending on the size and amount of drumsticks you're cooking, as well as your oven's temperature. Here are some general guidelines:

- For average-sized chicken drumsticks (about 3-4 ounces each), bake at 400°F (200°C) for 25-30 minutes.

- For larger chicken drumsticks (about 5-6 ounces each), bake at 400°F (200°C) for 30-35 minutes.

- If you're cooking a large batch of drumsticks (more than 12), you may need to increase the baking time by 5-10 minutes.

To ensure the drumsticks are cooked thoroughly and safely, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The drumsticks are fully cooked when the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Remember, cooking times may vary depending on your specific oven and the thickness of the drumsticks, so it's a good idea to monitor them closely towards the end of the cooking time to avoid overcooking.
