Where is the amylase in easy-bake yeast? Mine says it's got yeast,

Depends on make/brand. I can't remember which do and which don't as we have
standardised on Sainsbury's own so don't bother looking at others now. But
indeed, some did contain it.

OK - went to look at packet:


You too!


Dried yeast (93%), Calcium sulphate, Flour treatment agents: Ascorbic acid,
Alpha amylase; Emulsifier: Sorbitan monostearate. Recipes for Onion Bread
and Chelsea Buns included.


No recipes on mine. I just want to make white or wholemeal, as close
as I can get it to "bakery bread".


Is your yeast Allinson's?


Yup. Same price as Allinson's "ordinary", too.
