Localization Friendly Solution:

So many great solutions guys, but I'd like to add a note here for those who use localization.

You need to reverse the left and right EdgeInstets values to get the button laid out correctly in case of a change of language direction from LtR to RtL.

Using a similar solution I'd implement it as follows:

extension UIButton {

    func alignVertical(spacing: CGFloat, lang: String) {
        guard let imageSize = self.imageView?.image?.size,
            let text = self.titleLabel?.text,
            let font = self.titleLabel?.font
        else { return }

        let labelString = NSString(string: text)
        let titleSize = labelString.size(
            withAttributes: [NSAttributedString.Key.font: font]
        )

        var titleLeftInset: CGFloat = -imageSize.width
        var titleRigtInset: CGFloat = 0.0

        var imageLeftInset: CGFloat = 0.0
        var imageRightInset: CGFloat = -titleSize.width

        if Locale.current.languageCode! != "en" { // If not Left to Right language
            titleLeftInset = 0.0
            titleRigtInset = -imageSize.width

            imageLeftInset = -titleSize.width
            imageRightInset = 0.0
        }

        self.titleEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(
            top: 0.0,
            left: titleLeftInset,
            bottom: -(imageSize.height + spacing),
            right: titleRigtInset
        )
        self.imageEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(
            top: -(titleSize.height + spacing),
            left: imageLeftInset,
            bottom: 0.0,
            right: imageRightInset
        )
        let edgeOffset = abs(titleSize.height - imageSize.height) / 2.0;
        self.contentEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(
            top: edgeOffset,
            left: 0.0,
            bottom: edgeOffset,
            right: 0.0
        )
    }
}
