Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer or a wooden spoon, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just incorporated.
Fold the chopped walnuts into the cookie dough with a spatula or wooden spoon, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown and the centers are set.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven, and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
