according to @MimeeXu u can substitute a lot of stuff in this recipe and it'll still work out. ex: coconut oil for butter, maple syrup for honey, water or nutmilk instead of milk. so u have less excuses not to make this if you're quarantining :)
2nd attempt: used all sourdough starter instead of yeast, maple syrup and coconut oil. they were less fluffy but more complex/sourdough flavored! (in a good way)
