Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease six 6-ounce ramekins with butter.
  2. Roll out puff pastry on a lightly floured surface until it reaches about 1/8-inch thickness, and cut out circles larger than the ramekins.
  3. Melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a skillet, add chopped onions and sauté until translucent (about 4 minutes).
  4. Stir in minced garlic and mixed mushrooms; cook for 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour over the mixture, stirring well and cook for 2 minutes.
  6. Gradually pour in 1 cup of vegetable broth while stirring; bring to a simmer for about 5 minutes until thickened.
  7. Add 1/2 cup of heavy cream, stir, and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  8. Carefully fill each ramekin with the mushroom mixture and top with grated Gruyère cheese.
  9. Cover each ramekin with puff pastry, pressing edges to seal. Brush tops with beaten egg.
  10. Bake on a baking sheet for 15 to 20 minutes until puff pastry is golden brown.
  11. Let cool for about 10 minutes, then serve warm.
