Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan with butter or non-stick cooking spray, then line the bottom with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Do not overmix.
Gently fold in the mango puree until the batter is just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 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, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the cake as it is or with a dusting of powdered sugar on top for extra sweetness.
