Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix the gluten-free rolled oats, gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir well to combine, ensuring there are no lumps.
In a separate bowl, cream the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture. Mix until well incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients. Stir until everything is combined and the dough starts to form.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped walnuts, if using, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the dough.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy the cookies once cooled, and store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
