Notes
Dairy-Free Option
Butter: Replace the butter with an equal amount of melted coconut oil or dairy-free butter.
Buttermilk: Instead of buttermilk, you can use an equal amount of dairy-free yogurt or non-dairy milk such as almond milk or coconut milk, combined with one tablespoon of fresh lemon juice or apple cider vinegar.
