Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels.

In a bowl combine the panko bread crumbs and sweetened coconut flakes.

In another bowl beat the eggs with the Malibu Rum.

In a third bowl combine the flour and salt.

Bread the shrimp by coating each in the flour mixture, then egg mixture, and finally coating it in the panko coconut mixture, pressing the panko and coconut into the shrimp slightly.

In the oven: Place the shrimp on a lined baking sheet, or on a wire rack over a lined baking sheet. Place in a 400 degree oven for 20 minutes.

In the air fryer: Place the shrimp in a single layer, set the air fryer to 400 degrees for 15 minutes.

Serve with Malibu Rum Sauce.

Whisk all ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce will thicken as it cools
