Pour off most bacon fat, leaving about 1 tbsp. Add diced onion to the skillet and sauté until softened, 2–3 minutes.

Whisk eggs and cream together in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in cooked bacon, cheese, and thyme.

Pour egg mixture into the skillet over the onions. Stir gently to distribute bacon and cheese evenly.
