Instructions

Mix flour, baking powder and salt.
Mix water, milk, sugar and yeast and let it work for 10 minutes. After 10 Minutes it should be frothy - your yeast is active and ready to use.

The dough is a bit sticky. Now let it rise for 1 hour in a warm place. (Meanwhile, put the eggplant in the oven)
Form the dough into a disc on a floured work surface. Cut into 8 wedges and roll in balls.
Roll each dough ball into a oval sheet. Repeat with remaining dough balls.
Heat a large iron skillet, brush one side of pita with garlic butter and but that side down in the skillet.
Now brush the other side. Once the bread forms bubbles flip over and cook for 30-45 seconds and then remove the bread from the skillet. Do the same with the rest of the pita bread.
