Preheat the oven to 450Β°F (230Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Cut the vegan butter into small pieces and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Mix the almond milk and apple cider vinegar together in a small bowl and let it sit for a few minutes to create vegan buttermilk.
Gradually add the vegan buttermilk to the flour mixture, stirring gently until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times. Pat the dough out to about 1/2-inch thickness.
Use a biscuit cutter to cut out 8 biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on a wire rack.
While the biscuits cool, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly brown the vegan ham slices on both sides.
Slice the biscuits in half horizontally and spread a tablespoon of vegan mayonnaise on each bottom half.
Layer each with a slice of vegan cheese, two slices of vegan ham, a few leaves of arugula, and a couple of tomato slices.
Top with the other half of the biscuit and serve immediately.
