What happens if you don’t add yeast to bread?

[Dawn]

Hey bread enthusiasts! What happens if you forget to add yeast to your bread dough? Does it affect the taste, texture, or rising process? I’m curious if there are any alternatives or if it’s a bread-making disaster waiting to happen!

Hey! If you forget the yeast, your bread won't rise, leaving you with a dense, flat loaf. The texture will be heavier and the taste less developed since yeast adds that classic bread flavor. You can try adding baking soda and an acid (like vinegar or lemon juice) as a last-minute substitute, but it's not quite the same!
