Icelandic Happy Marriage Cake - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup quick oatmeal
    1 cup all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    1/2 cup white sugar
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1 cup unsalted butter (at room temperature)
    1 egg
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    3/4 cup rhubarb jam
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 400\u00b0. Butter or grease a 9-inch cake or pie pan.
    In a mixing bowl, combine oatmeal, flour, brown and white sugar, and baking soda. Cut in the butter (as you would for pie crust); with a pastry blender or with your hands, rub the butter into the dry ingredients until well blended.
    Beat in one egg and vanilla extract.
    Press 2/3 of the cake dough into the bottom of the pan. Spread the rhubarb jam evenly over the layer, then crumble remaining dough over top of cake.
    Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until crust is golden brown.
    Cool in pan on wire rack.
    Slice and serve.
