Steps:
- Peel and slice your bananas in small pieces.
- In a bowl, mix flour, milk, sugar, beaten egg, baking powder and oil as directed.
- Mix well until you get a thick mixture.
- Slide all your chopped banana pieces into this mixture.
- Take a deep frying saucepan or wok. Make sure you heat about half a cup of oil to the saucepan so the dumplings fry well.
- Keep the stove on medium to high heat.
- Using a tablespoon or wooden spoon, pick each banana piece from the bowl and pour directly into the hot oil. A little bit of the mixture will spread around the banana piece and that's good.
- Turn each dumpling after 1-2 minutes of deep frying so both sides are done well.
- As soon as the dumplings are golden brown, drain them on paper towel and serve hot with tea or coffee!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, combine the sugar and water. Add the butter and place in the oven to melt the butter.
- Meanwhile, place the flour in a mixing bowl. Use two knives or a pastry blender to cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. With a fork, stir in just enough milk or buttermilk until the dough leaves the side of the bowl.
- Turn dough onto lightly floured surface and knead 2 or 3 times, then use a rolling pin to roll out to 1/4-inch thickness. Use a 3-inch cutter to cut 24 rounds. Place a piece of banana in the center of each biscuit, then pull the dough around the banana and pinch the ends to seal on top.
- When the butter is melted, remove the pan from the oven and stir until the sugar completely dissolves.
- Place the banana dumplings, sealed side down, in the syrup. Sprinkle with a little sugar and return to the oven.
- Bake until golden brown, 50 to 60 minutes.

Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: Overripe bananas will provide a sweeter and more flavorful dumpling.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough dumplings.
- Let the batter rest: Allowing the batter to rest for a few minutes before cooking will help the dumplings hold their shape.
- Cook the dumplings over medium heat: This will help prevent the dumplings from burning.
- Serve the dumplings warm: Banana dumplings are best served warm, drizzled with melted butter and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar.
