In a small bowl, combine the almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Stir well and let it sit for about 5 minutes to curdle. This will create a vegan buttermilk.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt until well combined.
Add the vegetable oil and vanilla extract to the curdled almond milk mixture, stirring until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently mix with a whisk or spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of vegetable oil if necessary.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Carefully flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary to avoid burning.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite vegan toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or vegan butter.
