Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Mix sweet potatoes and onions with olive oil, thyme, kosher salt, and black pepper, then roast for 20 minutes.
  2. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F (190°C). Cool the roasted veggies, then place the pie crust in a dish and distribute the vegetable mixture evenly in the crust.
  3. Sprinkle grated gruyere cheese over the roasted vegetables, then crumble goat cheese on top for added flavor and texture.
  4. Whisk together eggs, heavy cream, thyme, salt, and pepper until well combined. Pour custard mixture over the vegetable and cheese layers.
  5. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until set and golden. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
