Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a food processor, pulse the flour and salt together. Add the cold butter cubes and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Gradually add the ice water while pulsing until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
-
Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
On a floured surface, roll out the dough into a circle and carefully transfer it to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Press the dough into the pan and trim any excess.
-
Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork, line it with parchment paper, and fill it with pie weights or dried beans. Blind bake for 15 minutes. Remove the weights and parchment paper, then bake for another 5 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside.
-
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their liquid and become golden brown.
-
Add the minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
-
In a bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and eggs. Season with salt and pepper.
-
Spread the mushroom mixture evenly over the pre-baked tart crust. Pour the cream and egg mixture over the mushrooms.
-
Sprinkle the shredded Gruyere cheese on top.
-
Bake the tart for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
-
Let the tart cool slightly before garnishing with fresh parsley.
