An array of foods might benefit from the mild, nutty flavor of flaxseed. In addition to pancakes and waffle mixture, powdered flaxseed can be used for a variety of other baked items, including scones and pastries. You can also add 1 tablespoon of powdered flaxseed or roasted flaxseed to yogurt or cereal if you like. Try it as a salad dressing, or sprinkle it on veggies after they've been baked.
