1 lb. peeled, deveined, tail-off large shrimp (frozen is fine if you thaw)
1/2 cup shredded coconut (no sugar added)
1/2 cup whole wheat Panko bread crumbs (No sugar added, or make your own - link above)
1 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1 1/2 tsp. onion powder
2 large egg whites
2 tsp. coconut oil

Preheat oven to 350 F.
Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel if they are damp or wet.In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites and the coconut oil.
In a separate medium sized mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut flakes, bread crumbs, garlic and onion powder.
Drop the shrimp in the egg whites and give them a good stir.
Pick them out (I used my hands), allowing them to drip off a bit of the excess and drop them in the dry coconut mixture.
Shake them around until they are coated and then place them individually on a parchment lined cookie sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes (no more!). They should be lightly golden brown.
