Mix rhubarbs and jam and put it in an oven-proof dish. Stir fat and 1 cup sugar until fluffy. Add wheat bran and baking powder and then blend in the milk alternating with flour. Drop out the batter in an even layer on top of the rhubarbs and jam.

Mix remaining sugar with Maizena, sprinkle it over the surface and then pour on the boiling water. Bake in the lower part of the oven at 350F for 50 to 60 minutes or until the cake is nicely coloured.
