🧑‍🍳 Directions 🧑‍🍳  

1. Preheat your oven to 300°F and prepare a cookie sheet by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.  
2. In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the flour and salt to ensure a smooth cookie texture.  
3. In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter, maple syrup, and vanilla until silky and well combined.  
4. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, blending thoroughly. Gently fold in the finely chopped pecans.
