In the bowl of an electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), combine the banana puree, butter, white and brown sugars. Add egg, vanilla and lemon juice and beat to combine.
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips and pecans.

Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
