I get ground golden flax meal at costco. I make these pancakes, which my 3 and 5 year olds both love:

I add more liquid than called for in the recipe. And I switch up the add-ins. The recipe calls for walnuts, but I've done berries, pecans, etc. The recipe, without any add-ins, makes great waffles too.

If your purpose to get more fiber into your kid, you might also try chia seeds. I make an overnight chia pudding that is a great breakfast. Here is recipe:

day before eating, stir together:
1 can coconut milk (its about 14 ounces)
1/2 cup milk, cream, almond milk, or whatever you like
1/3 cup whole chia seeds
2 t. cinnamon
1 t. vanilla
1/4 t. salt
sweetener of choice, to taste

Let sit in fridge for 8-48 hours, where it will get all thick and pudding-ish.

BTW - adding it in cookies etc is an option, but do you really need to give him junk food?

Boy, are you fun.

Potato fries are a healthy serving of veggies for you - right? Did OP not say that her son needs extra fiber? Use your brain and try and figure out what she is asking and why.

I buy the ground flaxseed from Whole Foods and store it in the fridge. I sprinkle it on yogurts, rice and curry, pasta, mac n cheese, mashed potatoes, soup, etc ....almost anything the kids are having for dinner.

I add flaxseed meal to potato or zuccini latkes instead of flour. Makes them gluten-free.
