Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line a 23cm (9-inch) round cake pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat together 120 grams of unsalted butter and 150 grams of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with milk. Mix until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly.
To make the crumble topping, combine the remaining 50 grams of unsalted butter, 50 grams of granulated sugar, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, gluten-free rolled oats, and chopped nuts. Mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the cake batter in the pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the cake slightly warm or at room temperature for best flavor.
