Chunky Monkey Pancakes

My niece and nephew love breakfast for dinner when we get together.  This might be a fun Wednesday night dinner at my Mom's.  I am pretty sure that I won't get able to get them to eat the pecans but I am guessing the adults at the table would like them.

1 C. all purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
3/4 C. skim milk
3 tbsp. butter, melted
2 eggs
1 tbsp. white sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 large banana, diced
1/2 C. miniature semisweet chocolate chips
1/4 C. chopped pecans
Cooking spray

Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.  Set bowl aside.  In a separate bowl, whisk together the skim milk, melted butter, eggs, sugar, and vanilla.  Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and stir in the wet ingredients, being careful not to over mix the batter.  Gently fold in the banana, chocolate chips and nuts.

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and coat with cooking spray.  Pour 1/4 cupfuls of batter onto the skillet, and cook until bubbles appear on the surface.  Flip with a spatula, and cook until browned on the other side.
