I've been on a quest for decent crackers and flatbread, and I've had lousy
luck with any of the ones I made. But I promised I would post as soon as I
found one that worked, and Eureka! today I made some crackers and flatbread
that are just darn good. So here's the recipe (and do send any improvements
you think of!).

Mix in a bowl:

2 1/4  tapioca starch (tapioca flour may work too, but this is what I had
on hand)
1 cup grated cheese (or 2, if you want cheesier). Grate it fine if you want
thin crackers.
2 eggs
1 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup butter, melted
salt

I also added a handful of dried onions and red pepper flakes, but it's good
without them too. Adding a lot of pepper keeps the kids from eating them
all up though :-) Just mix everything up with a spoon, you don't need a mixer.

Spread the batter on baking parchment or an Exopat baking mat. Spread the
batter like you would frosting a cake, about 1/4 inch thick or less. Bake
at 350 until the edges get a little brown. At this point, when you take it
out, it will be flexible, like a wrap or tortilla shell. If it's thicker it
will be like flatbread. It looks like it would make a decent pizza shell
too. The longer you bake it, the harder it gets.

If you want crackers, score it with a knife into cracker-size squares and
put it back in the oven at a lower temperature (like 200) until it gets
crispy. You can probably use a higher temperature if you watch it
carefully, but they burn easily.

If you use tapioca flour I think you'd have to add more liquid, but I have
not tried that yet.

This is a very savory cracker -- the yogurt gives it a rich taste I haven't
tasted much in a cracker. I used full-fat organic yogurt: I'm not sure how
it will turn out if the yogurt has gelatin etc. but you can try it.

Enjoy!
