Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 9x9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Set aside.
In another bowl, cream together the granulated sugar and unsalted butter until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Stir in the vanilla extract and mashed bananas into the sugar-butter mixture until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, alternating with milk, and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely in the pan.
Once the cake is cool, prepare the instant vanilla pudding according to package instructions. Poke small holes all over the surface of the cake using the back of a wooden spoon. Pour the prepared vanilla pudding over the cake, ensuring it fills the holes.
Spread the caramel sauce evenly over the pudding layer. Garnish with toasted nuts if desired.
Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled and enjoy!
