Best Answer

The holes are gases from the yeast eating the sugar in the dough. These bubbles are what makes the bread light rather than solid like a cracker.

As much as it may seem a bit gross, the gas is essentially yeast farts!

the yeast in the ingredients, which is used to make the loaf rise, makes carbon dioxide.. This yeast ferments carbohydrates in the flour, including any sugar, producing carbon dioxide, which in the holes. I think so confirm with someone before you think this correct.

Dough of bread contains yeast. Yeast reacts with sugar to give water and Carbon Dioxide (CO2). After baking CO2 escapes from dough which makes holes to bread.
