Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the puff pastry sheet onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a knife to gently score a 1-inch border around the edges, being careful not to cut all the way through. Prick the center of the pastry all over with a fork to prevent it from puffing up too much.
In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese and sour cream together until smooth and well combined. Set this aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Thinly slice the onions and add them to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10-12 minutes until the onions are soft and caramelized. Set aside.
In another small skillet, cook the bacon slices over medium heat until crisp. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease. Chop the bacon into small pieces.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the center of the puff pastry, staying within the scored border.
Distribute the caramelized onions evenly on top of the cream cheese layer. Sprinkle the chopped bacon pieces over the onions.
Sprinkle the tart with fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. If desired, add a light dusting of grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.
Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and flaky.
Remove the tart from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before cutting into slices. Serve warm and enjoy!
