Heat 2 tbsp butter in a 10-inch oven-safe skillet over medium-high. Add leeks, salt, and pepper; stir occasionally until golden and soft, 8–10 minutes.
Step 2
Stir in mustard and thyme. Spread leeks evenly. Scatter Gruyère across the top.
Step 3
Melt remaining 1 tbsp butter. Brush one phyllo sheet with melted butter, lay it on the leeks. Repeat with remaining 3 sheets, brushing each.
Step 4
Brush the top phyllo layer with remaining butter. Transfer skillet to a 400°F oven and bake until golden brown, 8–10 minutes.
