I would personally advise against the use of margarine and all other hydrogenated fats/oils, ~~as they are typically very high in trans fats, which are strongly linked to heart disease.~~ EDIT: No longer true, please see my other comment below

A good replacement for butter is butter flavored coconut oil, or other butter alternatives that do not use hydrogenated oils/fats, such as Miyoko's Plant butter, which uses a mix of safe oils (but is usually pretty expensive).
