Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a medium skillet, melt the unsalted butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté for 3-4 minutes until fragrant and translucent.
  3. Stir in the mixed sliced mushrooms and cook for 6-8 minutes until golden-brown and moisture is released.
  4. Sprinkle all-purpose flour over the mushroom mixture, stirring constantly for 1 minute. Gradually add the vegetable broth and heavy cream, simmer for 3-4 minutes until saucy and creamy.
  5. Add fresh thyme and Dijon mustard, season with salt and pepper, then fold in the grated Gruyère cheese until melted and smooth.
  6. Grease a muffin tin. Roll out the puff pastry and cut out circles larger than the muffin cups.
  7. Spoon the mushroom filling into each muffin cup, filling them about three-quarters full. Drape puff pastry over the top, sealing the edges.
  8. Brush the tops with egg wash. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Remove from oven and cool slightly for 5 minutes before serving.
