Peel and devein the shrimp if not already done. Pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In one bowl, place a small amount of flour.
In another bowl, whisk egg whites until slightly frothy.
In a third bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs and shredded coconut. Add any desired seasonings such as paprika, garlic powder, or salt.
Dredge each shrimp in the flour, shaking off any excess.
Dip the floured shrimp into the egg whites, ensuring it is well-coated.
Press the shrimp into the panko-coconut mixture, coating evenly.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Arrange the coated shrimp in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
Air fry for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the shrimp are golden brown and crispy.
