Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a shallow bowl, combine sweetened shredded coconut flakes, panko breadcrumbs, ground paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and coconut oil. Stir until evenly combined and damp.

In another shallow bowl, combine eggs, salt, and black pepper, and whisk together.

Using kitchen tongs, dip each chicken tender in the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated, then shake off the excess.

Dip the chicken tender into the breadcrumb mixture, flipping it to make sure it is evenly coated on both sides, and place it on the prepared baking sheet.

Repeat the process with the remaining chicken tenders.

Bake for 20 minutes, turning the chicken tenders over after 10 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked through.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
