In a large bowl, combine the flour, walnuts, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and 1/2 cup white sugar.

In another bowl, wisk the egg yolks, water, oil, and maple flavoring together. Add to the dry ingredients and beat until well blended (do not over beat).

Beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar and remaining sugar until stiff peaks form. Fold gently into batter.

Immediately invert the pan onto a wire rack, and cool completely.

Carefully run a cake knife around the edges of the pan and the enter tube to loosen the cake. Remove to a cake plate for serving.
