Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes, cover and cook over medium-high heat until just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Place potatoes about 3 inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Gently smash each potato with the heel of your hand to about ½-inch thickness.
Brush potatoes with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with thyme.
Bake potatoes, rotating sheet halfway through, until lightly browned and crispy, 30-35 minutes.
