I wanted to say that oftentimes, you’re left with a bunch of unused wonton or gyoza wrappers when you make dumplings. It’s rarely the case that the amount of filling you make exactly matches the number of available wrappers.
A great way to use up leftover wonton or gyoza wrappers it to make sopapillas (a mexican sweet treat)!
Fry up the leftover wonton wrappers and sprinkle with a mixture of sugar and ground cinnamon.
If you feel whimsical you can even give the wonton wrappers “shapes” by manipulating them with chopsticks while frying. In this case, I made little “farfalle bowties” with mine.

simple and sounds so good!
i love how you can see all the detail in the photo, the air bubbles in the fried wrappers. I can taste the crunch! Very appetizing…
