There are a couple of options:

1. You can get gloves which are touch screen compatible which means they have 
fibers embedded in the material which are conductive and work with touch screens
2. You could wear a headset and unless you are wearing super thick gloves this 
should allow you to use the remote control on the headset to answer a call
3. Since iOS version 14.5 and if you have a set of Airpods you can simply say 
"Answer" when the phone rings and it will answer the call. This also works with 
the Plantronics Voyager Edge and maybe some other Plantronics headsets and here 
this has always worked because it's a feature of the headset not of SIRI.
I did, however, just test this both without a headset as well as with wired 
Earpods connected and while saying "Answer" doesn't do anything, when my wife 
called me I said "Hey Siri Answer" while the phone was ringing and this did 
pick up the call.

iOS 14.5 lets users answer calls with Siri when using headphone s -

Subject: How can I answer the phone with gloves on?

What do I do, if a call comes, and I have gloves on.

I get it, the simple answer – remove gloves. But, I was in the grocery store, 
had to dig phone out, then get off gloves? Well, I am just wondering if it can 
be done, answer the phone with gloves on?
