Peel the bananas and cut them into small cubes or mash them in a bowl, depending on your texture preference.
Add the brown sugar and ground cinnamon to the bananas. Mix well until evenly combined.
Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the banana mixture in the center of each wrapper.
In a small bowl, beat the egg to make an egg wash. Use your finger or a pastry brush to lightly brush the edges of each wonton wrapper with the egg wash.
Fold the wonton wrapper into a triangle, pressing the edges tightly to seal the filling inside. You can also fold or pinch the edges decoratively if desired.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or saucepan over medium heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C). Test the oil with a small piece of wonton wrapper—it should sizzle immediately.
Carefully place the prepared wontons into the hot oil in small batches. Fry for 1–2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fried wontons using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Dust the fried wontons with powdered sugar while still warm.
If desired, drizzle with chocolate sauce before serving. Enjoy warm!
