Love Coconut Shrimp? This easy, Gluten Free version will earn you raves from the family.
Baked Coconut Shrimp used to be one of my favorite foods even before going gluten-free. Really anything seafood related has always been my favorite so I'm definitely glad to make a gluten-free recipe like this. Most of the recipes I share are usually dessert related even though the majority of what I eat isn't actually desserts. I eat mostly natural foods, not because I have to, but because it makes me feel best. This gluten free baked coconut shrimp recipe is super easy to make and it's one of my all time favorites too that everyone would enjoy.
