Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In another mixing bowl, whisk together the mashed bananas, melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
Add in the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually fold in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in three batches, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Drizzle half of the caramel sauce over this layer, then use a knife or toothpick to gently swirl it through the batter.
Add the remaining banana batter on top and repeat the process with the remaining caramel sauce, swirling lightly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out with a few damp crumbs attached.
Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve the banana caramel loaf as is, or warm it slightly and pair it with a pat of butter or more caramel drizzle!
