  1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large (10-inch) oven-safe skillet over medium-low heat.
  2. Add 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced. Sauté for 10-15 minutes, or until softened and caramelized, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Add 2 cups frozen hash browns (thawed if desired). Sprinkle with black pepper.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1/4 cup heavy cream, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the onions and potatoes in the skillet.
  6. Sprinkle 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese and 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves over the top.
  7. Cook covered over medium-low heat for 6 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is almost cooked through.
  8. Place the skillet under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
