Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped

  • 1 pound mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup grated cheese (such as Gouda or Cheddar)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 eggs

Instructions

  1. In a food processor, combine the flour and salt. Add the cold butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  5. Roll out the dough on a floured surface and fit it into a 9-inch tart pan. Trim any excess dough.
  6. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté until softened.
  7. Add the mushrooms and thyme, and cook until the mushrooms are golden and any liquid has evaporated. Season with salt and pepper.
  8. Sprinkle half of the grated cheese over the tart crust. Spoon the mushroom mixture on top, then sprinkle the remaining cheese.
  9. In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and eggs. Pour this mixture over the mushrooms and cheese.
  10. Bake the tart for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
  11. Let the tart cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
