In a medium saucepan, add fresh peach slices, ¼ - ½ cup sugar or honey, ¼ cup flour and cardamom. Bring to simmer over medium heat, and cook for 5 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
4 cups sliced peaches, ¼ - ½ cup organic sugar or honey, ¼ cup all purpose flour, 1 teaspoon cardamom seeds
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Place butter in a 10” or similarly sized Dutch oven and place in preheating oven.
6 tablespoons butter
Meanwhile, combine the remaining flour, ½ cup sugar, baking powder, salt. Stir in whole milk to form a thick batter, but do not over mix.
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder, ½ cup organic sugar, ¼ teaspoon salt, 1 ½ cups whole milk
Carefully remove the preheated Dutch oven from the oven and spoon approximately 2/3 of the batter into the bottom of the pan. Don’t worry about spreading as it will self level during baking.
Spoon the peach mixture over batter, then top with remaining biscuit batter. Place lid on the Dutch oven (using mitts of course).
Return to oven and cook covered for 25 minutes. After 25 minutes, remove the cover and cook for an additional 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
Remove from oven and cool slightly before serving. Serve warm cobbler with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for optimum enjoyment.
