Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and press it gently into place. Trim any excess dough and flute the edges, if desired.
In a medium skillet, melt the teaspoon of butter over medium heat. If using fresh thyme, sauté it lightly in the butter for additional flavor (optional).
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and milk until smooth.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese, shredded Gruyere cheese, and grated Parmesan cheese to the egg mixture. Stir until evenly combined.
Season the egg and cheese mixture with salt, black pepper, and thyme (if using). Stir gently to incorporate.
Pour the egg and cheese mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Place the quiche on the center rack of your preheated oven. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set but slightly jiggly.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Three Cheese Quiche!
