- 1 ½ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon (plus more for topping)
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup buttermilk (or non-dairy milk with vinegar for a substitute)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan.

- Let it cool slightly before serving.
Notes
For the best flavor, let your butter come to room temperature before mixing. You can add nuts or chocolate chips for added crunch and flavor.
