With a PoD after the Revolutionary War, what would be the most likely candidate for an American state that is majority non-Protestant? It can be Catholic, Orthodox, Shinto, Buddhist, non-religious, etc.

If LDS counts as non-Protestant, then OTL Utah does - it's majority Mormon.
But if you mean a single religion, and Mormonism doesn't count, then get Puerto Rico in since that's majority Catholic.
How plausible would a majority Orthodox Alaska or majority Buddhist and Shinto Hawaii be?
Evangelical is Protestant for purposes of this. Mormonism is unique, but close to Protestantism.
It can be combinations.

By when? Anytime before 1900? Rhode island may already have had a Catholic majority by 1900 (or at the very least Catholics plus Jews plus others may have outnumbered Protestants). "At the turn of the century, when...Rhode Island was fast becoming the first state with a Catholic majority" https://books.google.com/books?id=J6VleZCF9gkC&pg=PP17
"Similarly, the number of Catholics was high: by the turn of the century, Rhode Island was the first state with a Roman Catholic majority." https://books.google.com/books?id=pswPyBIZdUEC&pg=PA40
The role of the Church in Mormonism is incompatible with baseline Protestantism.
