Ingredients

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup cornflakes, lightly crushed
1 cup crispy rice cereal
½ cup rolled oats
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup canola oil
½ cup packed brown sugar

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Whisk flour, cornflakes, rice cereal, oats, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl.
Beat canola oil, sugars, vanilla, egg, and lemon zest in a separate bowl until well blended. Stir in dried blueberries. Add to the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
