Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Heat a medium skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chopped ham, cooled spinach mixture, cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets and cut each sheet into 4 equal squares, yielding a total of 8 squares.
Place about 1-2 tablespoons of the ham and spinach filling in the center of each puff pastry square.
Brush the edges of each square with the beaten egg, then fold each square diagonally to form a triangle. Press the edges firmly with a fork to seal.
Transfer the triangles to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the remaining beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the triangles are golden brown and puffed.
Serve warm and enjoy!
