Use chopsticks to stir evenly and the filling is ready.
Knead the oatmeal dough into long strips, cut into small pieces, and flatten the pieces one by one with your hands.
Tip 3: Knead the dumpling wrappers instead of rolling them. Starting from the edge of the disc, knead it in a circular motion and shape it into a small bowl shape. It's easy to roll out the dough with a rolling pin.
Then add the stuffing, not too much stuffing, and then fold the dumpling wrappers in half and pinch them together. You can also expose the two ends of the dumplings without squeezing them to death, so that the skin will not break when steamed.
Pinch all the dumplings one by one.

These are steamed oatmeal dumplings that can be eaten with dipping sauce.
