Best Answer

Use Baking soda and lemon juice. You mix in the soda with the dry ingredients, then add the juice with the wet ingredients. When it reacts, it fizzes up, making the dough "rise".

What is inactivated yeast?

It is sometimes called "dried yeast". It is yeast that has had all of it's moisture removed (so that it can be stored indefinitely), but becomes active again as soon as it is dissolved in water. It is sort of the opposite of "fresh yeast", but it still gives good results when used in baking. (To use it in cooking, you should always use half of the amount of yeast that's recommended for when using "fresh yeast", since dried yeast is twice as concentrated.)
