- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine finely chopped pistachios, crumbled feta, grated Parmesan, breadcrumbs, and melted butter. Mix until well coated and crumbly.
- Press the crust mixture into the bottom of a springform pan and bake for 10 minutes until golden brown.
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped mushrooms and minced garlic, sauté until soft, about 5-7 minutes. Let cool.
- In a large bowl, cream the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add sour cream, eggs, and an extra sprinkle of Parmesan, blending until smooth.
- Fold the cooled mushroom mixture into the cream cheese filling, seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Pour the filling over the pre-baked crust, smoothing it out evenly.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes until edges are set and center is slightly jiggly.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then let it cool completely before removing the sides.
- Garnish with fresh thyme and chopped pistachios before serving.
