Ingredients

1 lb Shrimp -Use large shrimp that has been peeled and deveined.
1 cup Flour
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
Seasonings as desired.
2 Eggs.
1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
1 cup Shredded coconut
Spray Oil

Instructions

If you have not done so, prepare your shrimp as needed. This includes removing the shells and veins.
Remove the basket from your air fryer and give it a quick spray with nonstick or use the prep of your choice. Then place the basket back into the air fryer.
To set up your dredging station, you will need three bowls plus a holding area for the coated shrimp.
In the first bowl, use a whisk or a fork to combine together the flour with the seasonings.
Lightly beat the eggs in the second bowl.
Then use a fork to combine the panko and shredded coconut in the third bowl.
To coat the shrimp, one shrimp at a time, dip the shrimp into the first bowl (dry ingredients)and then give the shrimp a tap or two to release any excess flour. Then dip the coated shrimp into the egg bowl (second bowl) and shake off any extra egg back into the bowl. Lastly, coat the shrimp in the breadcrumb and coconut mixture from the third bowl and place the shrimp on to your holding area.
Repeat the process with the remaining shrimp.
When all of your shrimp have been coated, preheat your air fryer to 350. While the air fryer is heating, you can spray the shrimp with the oil, flip the shrimp, and spray again.
Carefully, place your shrimp into the air fryer basket, leaving plenty of room between the shrimp. Air fry for three minutes and then flip the shrimp over. Continue to air fry until golden brown (about two to three more minutes).
Serve the shrimp with your favorite dip(s) or as desired.
