In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the tapioca flour, eggs, water, and salt until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add the butter or oil. Swirl it around to coat the surface evenly.
Once the pan is hot, pour in the crepioca batter and quickly spread it out by tilting the pan from side to side to form a thin, even layer.
Cook the crepioca for about 3-4 minutes, or until the edges begin to crisp and the surface appears set.
Gently loosen the edges with a spatula and carefully flip the crepioca over. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side until lightly golden.
Remove from the pan and transfer to a plate. Add your favorite toppings such as cheese, ham, fruits, or chocolate spread.
Fold the crepioca in half or roll it up and serve immediately while warm.
