Fleischmann’s Yeast, Fleischmann’s Instant Dry Yeast, 16 Ounce - 1 Pack, Fast-Acting, Gluten Free, No Preservatives

I recently stocked up on the Fleischmann’s Instant Dry Yeast (16 oz) for my weekly bread and pizza baking, and it hasn’t let me down. This fast-acting yeast mixes right into the dry ingredients—no need to proof—so it simplifies the process. I’ve been making soft sandwich loaves and chewy pizza crusts, and each batch rises beautifully. Bonus: it’s gluten-free and preservative-free, which fits well with our pantry preferences. It works great and has an amazing storage capacity. Additionally, it has a great texture!It’s also great value. One 16‑ounce bag gives me dozens of loaves, and I store the rest in a sealed container in the fridge where it stays active for months. Compared to sachets, having a bulk supply is more economical—and less wasteful.

Fleischmann’s Yeast has worked perfectly for all the bread I’ve made so far. I’ve used it with both white and wheat flours, and every loaf has risen well and turned out great. The price is solid too—better than what I usually find in stores. We use it in a bread maker, so its not complicated and easy for us novice bakers to use.No complaints at all. If you bake regularly, this is a reliable and affordable choice.

I bought this for its intended purpose: baking! I'm sure there are many great yeasts available, but this is always my go-to. It always arrives fresh, and never fails to make beautiful baked goods! I prefer instant yeast to active dry yeast because I can skip the proofing step and just add it directly into the dry ingredients for faster and less messy prep. It also tends to work better with most gluten-free baking (which all of my baking is). The end result is perfectly soft breads with height that I may not be able to get with other types of yeast.For those unfamiliar with gluten-free baking, the dough is notoriously fragile. I'm sharing photos of the start to finish on a pan of gluten-free cinnamon rolls that require a double rise. They're not as perfect as traditional cinnamon rolls with the dough being so much softer and stickier, but these photos show what a beautiful job this yeast does of creating alovely, stable rise. I've also included a couple photos of a loaf of gluten-free honey oat bread made in a pullman bread pan with a sliced photo to show what nice crumb you can create with a good recipe and the right flour and yeast!

Such a good deal - great value and the quality is great. Its a speed yeast that sets up quickly. While it is a lot I empty the bag into a glass mason jar with a tight lid and it has stayed fresh for months!

Great price! Have been making bread successfully in my breadmaker! Works perfectly!

What can you say about fresh yeast. Flour blossoms in half the time. The last package I purchased lasted from the first of the covid outbreak to now. Stored in the freezer. It started to take to long to rise. I gather you realize that I am frugal. That's with five dollars. That pound lasted a veryyyuh long time, so long that I can crank out a loaf of bread, rolls or pizza pie almost blindfolded. Practice makes for great bread.

Yeast quality is excellent baking ability is above average Dough rises quickly never been disappointed with this brand been using it for years I do allot of baking I do not buy store bread I make all my own.

Works as advertised. Great value.
