leavening agents
Batter bubble makers
Leavening agents are substances that make dough or batter rise by producing gas bubbles, creating a light, porous texture in baked goods.
Yeast ferments sugars to release carbon dioxide.
Baking soda and baking powder react chemically to produce gas.
Beaten eggs trap air mechanically.
The recipe calls for two leavening agents: baking powder and whipped egg whites.
