 - In an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment add the almond flour, flour, sugar and salt. Mix on low just to distribute ingredients.
 - Add butter and mix on medium-low speed until the texture resembles coarse cornmeal. Butter pieces should be no larger than small peas size.
 - Add the ice water and mix on low speed just until the dough pulls together.
 - Turn the dough out onto plastic wrap and divide into two small, round disks.
 - Wrap tightly and refrigerate for at least two hours before use.
 
For Peach Cobbler Filling:

 - Toss in cold butter that has been cut into quarter-inch pieces.
 - Pour mixture into buttered casserole pan.
 
For Assembling the Pie:
- Preheat oven to 375°F with a baking sheet on the middle rack.
 - Mix together granulated sugar and ground cinnamon, set aside.
 - Roll out one pie dough to 9x13-inches, and cut into 5-inch strips.
 - Roll out second pie dough to 9x13-inches, and cut into approximately 8-inch strips.
 - Arrange the strips of dough in a lattice pattern on top of filling.
 - Once lattice is complete, brush lattice with heavy cream and sprinkle with cinna-mon sugar.
 - Place cobbler on the baking sheet in the oven and bake at 375°F for 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes.
 - Let cobbler cool for 1 hour before serving.
