For Gluten-free wings use Tamari Sauce(gluten-free) instead of Soy Sauce.
You substitute arrowroot in place of cornstarch in the recipe.
You can also use honey as sweetener for the sauce if there are no dietary restrictions. 
In place of Almond Flour you can also use Panko Bread crumbs or homemade breadcrumbs.
Oil in the batter for coating the wings makes the wings more crispy and crunchy. You can skip ir altogether if you do not want to use oil or use 1 tsp.
