Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1.5 cups of gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the granulated sugar and 4 tablespoons of softened butter until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the almond milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
Gently fold in the fresh blueberries using a spatula.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.
To make the streusel topping, combine the brown sugar, 0.5 cups of gluten-free all-purpose flour, and ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture becomes crumbly.
Sprinkle the streusel mixture evenly over the batter in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the cake cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
