I have a recipe that requires- 1 package rapid rise yeast. Are you able to tell me what equivalent that would be in teaspoons or table spoons.
Will realy appreciate your advice.
Thanks

1 package yeast = 2.25 teaspoons. I think it's also .75 oz, but don't quote me on that.

I think those packets are 1/4 oz, but yeah - 2.25 (US) tsp. per.

That makes more sense, in the cold overcast light of day.

I'm still wondering what forces possessed me when I bought that 2 lb. bag of yeast. Thank god I never ever go to Costco.

I used the 2.25 measurement of yeast and my donuts came out perfect. Thanks for that I have recorded this in my Recipe diary for future use.
