Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lay the puff pastry sheets on a floured surface and cut each sheet into 4 equal squares, yielding 8 squares in total.
Place a slice of ham on each puff pastry square, folding it if necessary to fit within the edges.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and place 3 halves on top of the ham in each square.
Sprinkle approximately 2 tablespoons of shredded mozzarella cheese over the tomatoes on each square.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with the milk to create an egg wash. Use a brush to lightly coat the edges of the puff pastry squares.
Fold the edges of each puff pastry square inward to create a small crust and seal the edges by pressing gently.
Season each square with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Transfer the prepared squares to the parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced at least 1 inch apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Garnish each breakfast treat with a fresh basil leaf before serving warm.
