Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.
  2. Prepare Coating Ingredients:
    • In a shallow bowl, mix together coconut flour, garlic powder, and paprika until well combined. This will be your dry coating mixture.
    • In another shallow bowl, combine almond flour (or almond meal) with unsweetened coconut flakes. Mix them together evenly. This will be your coconut-almond coating mixture.
    • Beat the eggs in a third shallow bowl to create the egg wash.
  3. Coat the Shrimp:
    • Take each shrimp and coat it first in the dry flour mixture (coconut flour, garlic powder, paprika), shaking off any excess.
    • Dip the coated shrimp into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess egg to drip off.
    • Finally, coat the shrimp thoroughly in the coconut-almond mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating.
  4. Arrange on Baking Sheet:
    • Place each coated shrimp onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, leaving a bit of space between each shrimp.
  5. Bake:
    • Bake the coconut shrimp in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the shrimp are cooked through and the coating is crispy and golden brown. Flip the shrimp halfway through baking for even cooking.
  6. Serve:
    • Once baked, remove the coconut shrimp from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet.
    • Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sugar-free sweet chili sauce, avocado aioli, or a creamy garlic dip.
  7. Enjoy:
    • Enjoy these delicious and crispy Coconut Shrimp as a flavorful appetizer or main dish in your keto-friendly meal rotation!
