Instructions
Instructions are for 4 servings. Please modify as needed.
Preheat the oven to 365°F (185°C).
Mix all ingredients for the pie crust in a food processor for 1-2 minutes, until you get a firm dough. If you don’t have a food processor, just knead the ingredients together in a bowl using either a fork or your hands. Let rest in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes.
Roll out dough, about 1/4" (1/2 cm) thick, between two sheets of parchment paper. You can also spread out the dough with well-oiled hands or a spatula directly in a non-stick pie pan. If you use a springform pan, place parchment paper between the ring and the bottom to make it easier to losen the baked pie.
Clean mushrooms and fry in butter until golden. Add thyme, salt and pepper to taste. Whisk together the rest of the ingredients and pour into the pie crust.
Add mushrooms. Save a few pretty ones for decoration / serving. Bake for 30 minutes or until the pie gets a nice golder color and the filling is set. Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving, and serve with some leafy greens on the side.
Tips
This pie can be prepared in advance and it stores well in the freezer.
Thaws best at room temperature. You can gently reheat in a microwave or the oven at a low temperature. Protect the edges with aluminum foil to prevent burning when reheating in the oven.
Recommended special equipment
Food processor.

This was a delicious side for dinner, however, I had to cook it for an hour! After 30 minutes I covered the pie and cooked it until it was firm which turned out to be an hour~

We really enjoyed this and will make it again. Didn't have to bake longer as I used the same size pan as shown in the photo. Perhaps the pan size has something to do with the length of bake time some experience. Love chantarelles.

Any suggestions for mushroom substitutions? I'm just not a 'shroom fan. Perhaps drained zucchini?

I also enjoyed this recipe! My pan (that looks exactly) like the picture seemed to be to small. I had left over filling. What is the pan size used? Otherwise, it is great for leftovers and keeps well.

Can any mushrooms be used with this? I'm sure different mushrooms must lend to different flavors. I'm just not sure where I can find chanterelle mushrooms around me.

Cremini or other fresh mushrooms should substitute well in this recipe.

The pan size will be flexible with the key being to press the dough out to 1/4" thickness. A 9" round pie plate would be a good option.

Very very good! Nice creaminess to the pie "innards" and nice surprise: very original crust with the sesame. Thank you!

It would be worth a try. Cheddar may make the filling greasier but it may be OK.

Whats the pan size? Haaaaa use your head children. Great recipe. Came out so dope. Heavy cream and egg is so good. I was using 10 farm eggs. Mushrooms were picked out of backyard. Pried off a log. Tasty. Country living.

I used a 9 inch lined cheesecake pan, baby bella mushrooms and white and black sesame seeds. Had to bake it 20 minutes longer than the suggested time as mine was more deep than wide. Think Quiché and you'll get it right. The crust was special, I'm going to use it again for other dishes. 5 stars

it takes longer in the oven, than the suggested time!! About double, at least if you use the same backing form shown on the picture, you should cover it

I really enjoyed this. I see cremini mushrooms and a 9” pie pan and baked for about 50 minutes. It was excellent!
