Preheat an air fryer to 375ºF.
In a small bowl, mix together the flour, garlic powder, salt and pepper with a fork. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs with a splash of water to thin out slightly.
⅓ cup all purpose flour, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, 2 large eggs
In another bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs and coconut until evenly distributed.
½ cup panko breadcrumbs, 1 ½ cups sweetened
Using a paper towel, gently pat dry the shrimp to remove any excess moisture from the surface. This will allow the coating to adhere better.
1 pound raw shrimp
Holding by the tail, dredge each shrimp in the flour mixture, followed by the egg, then the coconut mixture.
Spray the outside of each shrimp with cooking spray and set aside on a plate.
Cooking Spray
Place the shrimp around the inside of the air fryer basket, leaving a small space in between to keep them from sticking together. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown, turning once halfway through. Depending on the size of your air fryer, this may require cooking in a few batches.
