Start by mixing the almond milk and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to create a dairy-free buttermilk substitute.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the almond milk mixture, maple syrup, vegetable oil, and maple flavoring to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat it with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet to form a pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown on both sides. Repeat to make 8 pancakes.
While the pancakes cook, fry the bacon in a separate pan until crisp. Once done, remove and drain on paper towels.
In the same pan, remove excess bacon grease, leaving just enough to cook the eggs. Fry the eggs to your liking (sunny side up or over easy recommended).
To assemble the McGriddle, place one pancake as the base, add a slice of bacon, a cooked egg, and a dairy-free cheese slice. Top with another pancake.
Serve immediately and enjoy your dairy-free Bacon Egg and Cheese McGriddle.
