Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the gluten-free puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface to smooth it out, and cut it into 8 triangles.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, finely chopped cooked ham, chopped chives, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly distributed and creamy.
Place approximately one tablespoon of the ham-cream cheese mixture at the wide end of each triangle of pastry.
Carefully roll up each triangle starting from the wide end to the point, forming a crescent shape.
Transfer the filled crescents to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush the top of each crescent lightly with the beaten egg to ensure a golden, shiny finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the crescents are golden brown and flaky.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your delightful gluten-free Schinkengipfel as an appetizer or snack!
