Yeast is used in [[baking]] as a [[leavening]] agent, where it converts the fermentable sugars present in the [[dough]] into carbon dioxide. This causes the [[dough]] to expand or rise as the carbon dioxide forms pockets or bubbles. When the [[dough]] is baked it "sets" and the pockets remain, giving the baked product a soft and spongy texture. | Yeast is used in [[baking]] as a [[leavening]] agent, where it converts the fermentable sugars present in the [[dough]] into carbon dioxide.
