Default Lighten these dumplings?

A family dumpling recipe goes:

3/4 C flour
1 egg
1 1/2 tsp oil
1/4 C milk
1 tsp salt
Garlic powder if you like it. (my addition)

Mix and spoon in small portions into boiling water. Cover (watch out - it
boils over! try to leave a big gap between lid and pot). Simmer 15
minutes.

Problem is, these come out somewhat chewy sometimes. Anyone know anything
I could change to make them a little bit lighter and airier?

TIA.

Ken
