Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine tapioca flour and salt. Slowly whisk in water until you have a smooth, pourable batter with no lumps. Let rest for 5 minutes.
Step 2
Heat a non-stick crepe pan or 9-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly butter the surface.
Step 3
Pour about 0.25 cup batter into the center and immediately tilt and rotate the pan to spread into a thin, even circle. The crepe should be lacy and have some gaps.
Step 4
Cook for 1-2 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy. The top will remain moist.
Step 5
Add your chosen fillings to one half of the crepe while still in the pan.
Step 6
Fold the crepe in half or roll it, then transfer to a serving plate. Repeat with remaining batter.
