yeastless
Flat, no rise
Yeastless describes bread or baked goods made without yeast as a leavening agent: yeastless flatbread, a yeastless pizza crust.
Such items don't rise the same way and have a denser texture.
The word sometimes appears in dietary contexts where yeast is avoided for health reasons.
