I want to do this with a brown sugar & crushed pecan filling (pecan pie brioche!), but I only have active dry yeast. How much should I use to sub for the instant yeast and should I bloom it before putting it in the Zo? Use 2 1/4 teaspoons of active dry yeast; put the recipe's liquid into the Zo first, add the yeast, then the remaining ingredients, and mix away. It will be fine. Susan
