Directions:

In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, yeast and salt. Whisk melted butter into warm milk and pour milk mixture into dry ingredients. Stir until mixture comes together and forms a ball, dough should be slightly sticky and elastic so add an up to an additional 1/4 cup milk as needed. Cover dough with plastic wrap and allow to rest 10 minutes. Heat 1 inch of oil in a large cast iron skillet to 350 - 360 degrees over stove top. Divide rested dough into 8-10 equal pieces. Working with floured hands and one piece of dough at a time (keep other pieces covered with plastic wrap), roll dough out on a lightly floured surface into a 5 - 6-inch circle and gently drop into hot oil, and cook until golden brown, then rotate and cook opposite side until golden brown. Remove from oil and drain onto a plate or baking sheet lined with paper towels. Serve warm with Navajo Taco filling
