- Position oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat oven to 350°; moderately butter cookie sheets.
- In a 3-quart saucepan, melt the butter and set aside to cool to tepid.
- Strain together the flour, salt, and baking soda; set aside.
- Using a wooden spoon, add the maple syrup to the butter, mixing well.
- Blend in the egg, orange juice, and maple and vanilla extracts.
- Whisk in the sugars, stirring until well combined and free of lumps.
- Stir in the dry ingredients in three additions, then fold in the nuts with a large rubber spatula.
- Using the tip of a teaspoon, drop mounds of dough the size of large walnuts onto the cookie sheets, placing them 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes, until the edges just begin to brown, rotating the pans top to bottom and front to back toward the end of the baking time.
- Remove from oven and let stand for 2-3 minutes before loosening with a thin metal spatula; cool on wire racks.
