Preheat your oven to 180Β°C (350Β°F). Grease a 9-inch round cake tin and line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the granulated sugar until the mixture is pale and thick. This should take about 5 minutes with an electric mixer.
Add the sunflower oil, milk, and vanilla extract to the egg mixture. Mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, being careful not to deflate the mixture. Mix until just combined.
Gently fold in the lemon zest to add a fragrant aroma to the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, turn it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, dust the top of the cake with the gluten-free confectioners' sugar before serving.
