Pass a function (used lambda in the following code) instead of return value of the function.

from tkinter import * 

root = Tk()  
e1 = Entry(root)  
e1.pack()

def add(x):  
    e1.insert(INSERT, x)  

a = Button(root, text='2', command=lambda: add(2))
a.pack()

root.mainloop()

In addition to that, extract Entry creation code out of the add function. Otherwise entry are create every time when the button is clicked.
