Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil.
Peel the russet potatoes and sweet potatoes, then slice them into thin, even rounds (about 1/8 inch thick) using a sharp knife or mandoline. Set aside.
Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions into rings. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.
Stir in the heavy cream, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Heat the mixture gently until warmed, but do not let it boil. Remove from heat and set aside.
Layer half of the russet potato slices evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Follow with a layer of sweet potato slices, then half of the onion slices. Sprinkle with half of the Gruyère and Parmesan cheeses.
Repeat the layers with the remaining potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions, and cheese.
Pour the warm cream mixture evenly over the layered ingredients, ensuring that it seeps through the layers.
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly, and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife.
Allow the dish to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional thyme if desired.
