This was good, hubby says 3.5 to 4, I say 3 to 3.5! Ued pickerel and baked at 400 for about 22mins. I used ground almonds and had to make my own breadcrumbs. As coconut tends to be sweet enough, I opted out of adding the sugar and also decided to leave out the salt as I didn't think it was needed. Used a combo of yellow/whole grain dijon mustard and used Miracle Whip as I don't buy 'mayo'. Despite leaving out the sugar, I did find this somewhat sweet. Overall, decent recipe.

I made this last night. WOW, this was awesome. My kids loved it. I sed chopped pecans as I did not have mixed nuts and I used paprika so it wouldn't not be too zippy for my little one. Also, I used mustard w/honey instead of brown mustard. Thanks for sharing!!

I liked this recipe it was fairly easy, I tossed the fish in a baggy with the mayo/mustard mixture to make it easier. I also had to make a sauce with it otherwise I would have found it a bit bland. I stirred orange marmalade, dijon mustard and horseradish to taste and put this on the side, very good

This was Soooo Good!!! i changed it a little bit to make it healthier though. first i threw it in some whole wheat flour, then into some beaten eggs with 1 tbl mustard and some pepper mixed in instead of mayo mixture, then into the coconut/ almond/ chile/ 1/4Cup bread crumb mixture. I omitted the sugar and didn't have cayenne but crushed chile worked just as well. much healthier and everyone LOVED IT! Thanks!

I was really looking forward to this recipe as the reviews were fairly good. But I found the mustard a bit overwhelming (and I love mustard!), and the sweetness from the coconut was too rich. I might make it again, but I'd definitely cut down on the mustard and the coconut.

I mixed the dry spices with the wet ingredients instead of dry, and I used panko crumbs instead of bread crumbs. Simply delicious.

Okay. Not really crunchy enough, but that might have been the bread crumbs I bought.

I really liked this recipe. I love fish with a nutty coating. I used Talapia and used more nuts than breadcrumbs. I would cut down on mustard next time, but otherwise, fabulous. Highly recommend.

I highly recommend this! Fish is hard to cook, but this recipe was easy and it came out perfect. I made a few changes to suit my family's taste. I used tilapia. I reversed the quantities on the breadcrumbs and mixed nuts (so there were more nuts and less breadcrumbs); I also added extra coconut. It came out great, absolutely delicious, and the kids loved it! Next time I may try Miracle Whip instead of mayo. Thanks so much for this wonderful recipe - this will be a staple in our household!

I couldn't find whitefish, so I used whiting filets and it worked really well with this recipe!

I tried this with whitefish, largemouth bass and walleye. It was great but only after reduction of cayenne to a pinch. I also increased the temp to 400 @ 18- 20 min

This was good, but I was disappointed it was neither as nutty or as coconutty as I had hoped. I would use less bread crumbs in the mix next time.

This was a tasty recipe for whitefish. Different, but very good. Didn't have any nuts, so left out. I think I would bake at a higher temp next time to help the breading get a little more crisp. Since I used sweetened coconut, I didn't add the tsp of sugar. Didn't have brown mustard, so used yellow (think it would taste better with brown). A nice, quick and easy recipe.

This was a very good recipe! I love the crispiness of the coconut and the blend of seasonings! The mayo/mustard mix made the fish ultra moist, which made me unable to stop eating it!! YUM! THanks! I will use this over and over !

I've used this recipe with snow cod several times and altered it a few times according to what I had on hand. I've ommitted the cayenne, used several different types of nuts and even none at all, used different mustards, sweetened coconut and black pepper, etc. Also, instead of baking it, I've pan fried it slowly until it turns crispy and golden. My husband is not a fish fan being from a state that doesn't get it very fresh while I crave seafood. We BOTH love this recipe and usually wish we had made more after it's done. Also, no matter the alterations, it's always tasty although the original is great as well.

Very good recipe. Since the mayo and mustard mixture are used primarily as “glue” for the crust, I used fat free Miracle Whip instead of mayo. No added calories and tastes great. I also recommend using very fresh, moist coconut. I agree with another reviewer to increase temp to 400 degrees. When the fish is done, the crust is lightly browned.

I substituted Miracle Whip for Mayonnaise, used Zesty French's Deli mustared, used sweetened flake coconut that was 6 months expired, used just a sprinkle of cayenne pepper, used only chopped pecans (all I had on hand), used less sugar and salt than called for in the recipe, and baked it at 400 instead of 375 ('cause fish needs to bake at high heat.) It still tasted great! Whole family enjoyed it. Thanks for the recipe.
