Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease and line a 9x5 inch (23x13cm) loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until it is creamy and smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
Gradually add the granulated sugar to the butter, beating continuously until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to ensure they are fully incorporated.
Stir in the vanilla extract.
With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the dry flour mixture to the butter and sugar mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
