- 8 oz cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves

Instructions
- 1
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and 1/4 tsp salt. Add the cold butter cubes and use your fingertips to press them into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces remaining. Drizzle in ice water 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with a fork after each addition, until the dough just holds together when pressed — it should not be sticky or wet. Shape into a flat disk, wrap tightly, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with butter.
