Steps
Step 1
Add flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl and stir to combine. Pour in the milk and stir until combined.
Step 2
Then roll the mixture into a ball and lightly knead until it comes together. Break off about 10 pieces of dough and form them into balls.
Step 3
Set them aside. In a 10-inch skillet, heat enough oil over medium heat to fry the dumplings, until the oil is about 350 degrees.
Step 4
Once the dumplings are browned on one side, flip them and cook until both sides are browned, about 2-3 minutes each. Once done, remove the dumplings from the oil and place them on paper towels or a cooling rack to drain off any excess oil.
