BAKED KETO COCONUT SHRIMP RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). Place a nonstick wire rack onto a lined baking sheet. Spray or brush the rack with oil.
• If your shrimp is frozen, run it under luke-warm water to thaw it a bit. Pat dry.
• Arrange three bowls - one with beaten eggs, one with coconut flakes, and one with a mixture of coconut flour, garlic powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper.
• Dredge each piece of shrimp in the coconut flour mixture, dip in the egg shaking off the excess, and finally press/roll in the coconut flakes. Place on the wire rack.
• Bake the shrimp for 4 minutes. Flip and cook for 5-6 more minutes, until firm and cooked through. Place under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, until lightly golden.
