What does leavened bread means?

Answer 1

Yeast is a leaven. A chemical reaction between the yeast and water creates tiny gas bubbles, making dough expand.

Answer 2

Yeast is a bacteria found in bread and many other baking products that makes the dough rise. When it is inserted into the oven, yeast cells reproduce under the heat to form thousands of new yeast cells. These yeast cells take up more space, therefore forcing the bread's crust upwards to accomodate more room. It is because of this process that breads rise.

Answer 3

A bread that uses yeast to make it rise, vs a bread that uses baking soda or baking powder to rise (biscuits, pancakes for example).
