Cream the butter or margarine and cream cheese together. Gradually add the white sugar, and continue beating until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla. Add flour, baking powder, and soda; mix until batter is just moist.

In a small bowl, mix together chopped pecans, 2 tbsp brown sugar, and cinnamon.

Divide 1/2 batter into 2 greased loaf pans. Sprinkle pecan mixture over batter in pans, and top with remaining batter.

Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean!
