Baked Coconut Tilapia

1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup fresh bread crumbs
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 egg
2 tilapia fillets (about 6 ounces each)

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Combine 1/4 cup coconut and bread crumbs in a food processor and process until fine crumbs form. Pour in a shallow dish and stir in remaining coconut, salt and pepper. Beat egg in a shallow bowl. Dip fish in egg, then in coconut mixture. Place on a small, ungreased baking sheet. Bake, turning once, until crust is light golden brown and fish is flaky, about 7 minutes per side.
