Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease a 9-inch baking dish with 1 tbsp butter. Thinly slice the 4 potatoes and 1 onion (about 1/8 inch thick).
Step 2
Layer half the potatoes in the dish, then half the onion. Sprinkle with half the thyme and season with salt and pepper. Repeat with remaining potatoes, onion, and thyme.
Step 3
Pour 1 cup heavy cream over the layers. Tuck the bay leaf into the cream. Dot the top with the remaining 1 tbsp butter.
Step 4
Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife and the top is golden and bubbling.
Step 5
Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Remove the bay leaf before eating.
