Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan or spray it with non-stick baking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and cream cheese together on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Gradually add the granulated sugar and continue to beat until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to ensure they are fully incorporated.
Mix in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed just until combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 75-80 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve as is, or dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with a vanilla glaze for extra sweetness!
