Ingredients

For the jam

1 cup fresh blueberries
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tsp lemon juice

For the cookies

1 cup pitted dates
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cups raw walnuts
1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

In a saucepan combine the jam ingredients and cook on a medium flame. Just before the first boil crush the blueberries with a potato masher in the pan itself.
Cook again for 3-4 minutes on a medium flame. Then lower the flame further and cook while stirring at intervals.
Turn off the flame as soon as the jam starts to thicken. Let it cool down to room temperature.
In the meanwhile, combine all the cookie ingredients in a grinder and process until dough gets a sticky texture.
Divide the dough into 8 equal parts and shape them like flat cookies between your palms.
Place them in a flat plate and let them set in the freezer for 5-7 minutes.
Take out the cookies and generously spoon the jam on them. Garnish with more blueberries if desired and enjoy.

Notes

If any blueberry jam will be left after spreading them on the cookies which can be used a spread on your toast or just make few more cookies to use up the jam.
This blueberry jam is chunky in texture because of the fresh blueberries.
The cookies can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for 4-5 days.
