Will Yeast Eat Erythritol?

Does yeast eat monk fruit sweetener?

The yeast will work just fine in a dough with artificial sweetener. Sugar is actually inhibiting the yeast, not helping it (that's why you cannot make yeast dough that's too sweet). Simply put the yeast in the dough as usual and work it.

Which sweetener is best for yeast?

Aspartame (Equal) worked the best when combined with yeast and warm water. My project is about determining if it is possible to have yeast react with the sugar substitutes aspartame (Equal), sucralose (Splenda), and saccharin (Sweet'N Low) and which would produce the most carbon dioxide.
