Preheat your oven to 200Β°C (400Β°F).
In a large skillet, melt the butter with the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring frequently, until they release their liquid and become golden brown.
Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir to coat evenly, cooking for 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually pour in the vegetable broth while stirring to create a thick sauce.
Stir in the heavy cream, thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper. Let the mixture simmer gently for 5 minutes, then remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Roll out one puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface and place it in a 9-inch pie dish, gently pressing it into the sides.
Fill the pie shell with the mushroom mixture, spreading it out evenly.
Roll out the second puff pastry sheet and place it over the filling. Trim any excess pastry and crimp the edges to seal.
Cut small slits on the top pastry to allow steam to escape.
Brush the beaten egg over the top crust for a golden finish.
Place the pie on the center rack of the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, until the crust is puffed and golden brown.
Let the pie cool for 5-10 minutes before serving for easy slicing.
