Jordi Alba and Ousmane Dembele made good progress down the Barca left with 14 minutes on the clock.
The Spanish left-back fizzed in a low cross for Griezmann.
The ex-Atletico Madrid man – getting central in the absence of the rested Lionel Messi – got ahead of his marker Lasha Dvali.
And he made a clean connection with his trailing left heel to divert it beyond goalkeeper Denes Dibusz.
It was his third goal in as many games for the Catalan giants – including a thunderbolt of a volley against Osasuna on Sunday.
He had not managed that feat for the club since joining in July 2019 for £108million.
Six minutes later Martin Braithwaite – tipped with an exit in January – made it four goals in a week and three in two in the Champions League.
Dembele got himself on the scoresheet from the penalty spot to make it three within half an hour.
And that is how it finished in Budapest as Barcelona maintained their perfect record in Group G.
Their five wins from five sees them top of the group, three points clear of Cristiano Ronaldo’s Juventus ahead of their face-off next week to decide who goes through in first and second.
