Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 10-inch bundt cake pan with butter or cooking spray.
Step 2: Cream Butter and Cream Cheese
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and cream cheese until smooth and well combined.
Step 3: Add Sugar and Eggs
Add the granulated sugar to the butter and cream cheese mixture and beat until light and fluffy. Then, add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Step 4: Incorporate Vanilla Extract and Dry Ingredients
Mix in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
Step 5: Fold in Crushed Pineapple
Gently fold in the drained crushed pineapple until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 6: Bake the Cake
Pour the batter into the prepared bundt cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake for approximately 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
