To offer some substitute ingredients for this recipe, here are a few options:

1. Flour: You can substitute it with other gluten-free flours such as rice flour, gluten-free oat flour, or coconut flour. Keep in mind that the texture and flavor of the donuts may be slightly different depending on the flour you use.
2. Protein Powder: Vanilla whey protein powder is a good substitute or different flavour of protein powders, such as chocolate or strawberry.
3. Sweetener: Instead of honey, you can use other sweeteners such as maple syrup, coconut sugar, or agave nectar.
4. Milk: If you don’t have unsweetened almond milk, you can substitute it with any other plant-based milk, such as soy milk, coconut milk, or oat milk. Regular dairy milk will work if you’re not dairy-free.
5. Egg: If you’re vegan or don’t eat eggs, you can substitute it with a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 3 tablespoons water) or a chia egg (1 tablespoon chia seeds + 3 tablespoons water). Keep in mind that the texture and taste of the donuts may be slightly different depending on the egg substitute you use.
