Ingredients
  

  • 2 sticks butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 Tablespoon lemon zest finely grated
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • 1 1/2 cups dried blueberries

Instructions
 

  • Adjust oven racks to low and middle positions; heat oven to 375 degrees. In bowl of electric mixer, beat butter until creamy. Add sugars; beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in eggs one at a time; add lemon zest.
  • Mix flour, salt, baking powder, and nutmeg together; stir them into butter-sugar mixture. Stir in oats and blueberries.
