Ingredients

2 ½ cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 ½ cups whole milk

1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups fresh or unthawed frozen blueberries

Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly coat a 7-by-11-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Stir oats, milk, eggs, 1/4 cup brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla, lemon zest, lemon juice, cardamom, baking powder and salt together in a large bowl until combined. Fold in blueberries until evenly distributed. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish; sprinkle evenly with the remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar.
