Directions
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, and lightly coat with cooking spray.
First prepare the cake batter. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, cardamom, and salt; whisk to combine.
In a separate bowl, combine eggs, oil, milk, tahini, vanilla, and lemon zest; whisk to combine. Pour egg mixture into flour mixture and mix until just combined. Fold in 1 cup of the blueberries, and transfer mixture to prepared baking pan.
Next, prepare the crumb topping. In a small bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. With a fork (or your fingers), cut in the butter, combing until the mixture resembles coarse sand. Sprinkle crumb mixture over the batter, and scatter remaining ½ cup blueberries overtop. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean. Cool in the pan for 30 minutes before removing and transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Lastly, prepare the tahini glaze by combining tahini and milk in a small bowl; whisk to combine. Add sugar and whisk until smooth. Drizzle tahini glaze over crumb cake, and slice into 9 pieces.
