Ingredients
- 1 cup cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup shiitake mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup Gruyère cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 pre-made puff pastry or pie dough
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a skillet, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat. Sauté chopped onions until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper, and cook until mushrooms are golden brown, about 8-10 minutes.
- Stir in fresh thyme and heavy cream. Let it thicken slightly, then fold in grated Gruyère cheese until melted.
- Roll out the pastry on a floured surface, cutting out circles for ramekins.
- Spoon filling into ramekins, placing pastry on top and crimping the edges to seal. Make slits for steam to escape.
- Brush tops with egg wash and bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown.
- Let cool briefly before serving.
Notes
Keep ingredients cold for a flakier crust. Use various mushrooms and cheeses for different flavor profiles.
