Here's the "master recipe" for quick homemade granola:
½ cup nut butter
⅓ cup syrup
1 tsp extract
¼ cup seeds
2 cups rolled oats
½ - 1 cup nuts (This is the most expensive item, so it's flexible)
¼ tsp salt
optional extras (puffed grain, coconut flakes, spices, etc)
Mix the wet stuff first, then mix in everything else. Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet at 350F for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway. Don't let the sugar burn!

that little flashcard at the beginning was the most thoughtful thing ive seen a youtube cook do
shaq the realest in the game fr 😤
He has done that for other videos too.
i like it
i hate the whole "watch the video to the end" game yt'ers play with us lol
@@printdivisionafrica469 that's why I love Shaq. He respects my time, and doesn't try to trick you into giving him that sweet viewer retention, but just makes videos that are entertaining, useful, and concise so you have no reason not to watch.
Exactly. Didn’t make me leave a recipe timestamp comment that I later have to choose to sift through the comments to find or do a skip-and-find rewatch 😑😂
I genuinely always appreciate how you don't ignore the cleanup and other misc labor that goes into cooking like so many other UA-cam cooks do.
Adam Ragusea is another cook proponent in this aspect. Two of my favorite youtubers because of this.
@@D._Von Adam is a buffoon
@@D._Von love that man adam
@@D._Von adam sucks
well a lot of the cleanup on youtube vids and cooking shows tend to come from the presentation aspect, they're not just presenting the final dish but all of it's stages, hence a ton of unnecessary bowls n shit tend to end up getting used. i generally spend my time on the rewatch figuring out what parts can be cut down. aka do i really need a separate bowl for that?
Ive actually since deleted the screenshot i took of the recipe card at the beginning. Its so useful and thoughtful that i feel like dropping an extra view every time i make granola is fair
That view will lower the average watch time, but I'm guessing it still generates ad revenue.
And YT knows that you're a return-viewer, so i suspect the algo probably doesn't deprioritize the video for that. I really don't know though lol.
As a college student addicted to granola, this is about to save me an non-insignificant amount of money.
non-insignificant?🥴😂
Once made a mexican hot chocolate granola with cocoa, loads of cinnamon, and cayenne. It was insane. Best granola I've ever had.

Stealing this idea
@@CBMX_GAMING please do!!
That sounds AMAZING! I'm definitely trying that! Thank You, hannah!!!
As a Mexican, this is exactly the type of granola recipe I was looking for! I love you
As an avid granola maker, one additional tip for cluster seekers is to throw some of the oats into the food processor (I usually do about 1/3 of the total), and blitz to a fine powder. It helps to create a tighter structure and doesn't require using an egg white. Definitely let it cool at least an hour though before trying to break it up.
Commenting for visibility.
Yeehaw
I use rice flour, it gives it a crisp
@@romacoco Yeah, other flours work well if you are OK with using other ingredients. Commercial "cluster" granolas I've seen use some combination of rice, corn or tapioca flour.
For those of us without a blender, I'm curious if a few tablespoons of oat flour could help.
Probably no one will see this, but I just want to say that this channel is quite possibly the best of all time. Not only are the videos concise and well done, but they go beyond being catered only to those interested in food and cooking. The subject matter is always relevant and the information itself is never too complex or watered down. I don’t think anyone else can make such content that can be unanimously enjoyed by all. Anyway, just wanted to voice my appreciation. Cheers ✌️
We've got recent videos on Metamucil, oatmeal, and now granola-Shaq's gotta have the healthiest GI tract on UA-cam.
Lol this made me think of GI Joe & how funny it could be if a gastrointestinal joe were made.
This granola video is the perfect excuse to go into the kitchen for some late night, 1am impulse cooking.
I thought I was the only one. I never discussed my late night cooking problem with anyone until now.
shaq is such an against the grain kinda youtuber. most would put the important things hidden to squeeze viewer retention, but he always puts the most important stuff in the beginning. and i appreciate it
no I'm pretty sure this guy loves grains
@@the.mad.villain 😂
yeah he's so against the grain he loves them grains
gave me a good laugh
Good morning Shaq! Have a great day!
thank you meebg good morning to you too :)
Did your yt name used to be meebg. As net shaq wrote? It's MeatyM rn
My family has been making homemade granola for ages! The only downside is that now I'll typically refuse to eat the storebought stuff because it's *too* hard and too big of clusters, while our homemade stuff is small, crispy, and infinitely more interesting. Glad you're spreading the word about this!
What are some of your favorite recipes?
As a vegetarian, bagged granola is a staple in my household. I'm looking forward to trying this!
It used to be a staple in my household until it started costing six bucks for a little bag. Now I can use lots of nuts on rich months or lots of grains when my budget is lower
yikes
@@AndyS52 What's wrong with granola? It has protein, healthy fats, complex carbohydrates, and a bit of sweetness to boot.
@@AndyS52 L
@@noahpoobbailey It's not as healthy as you think simply because of the added sugar.
This guy... I think it's the level of intelligence he infuses into his explanation that really makes these videos shine. Thanks again. I think I will try some of these.
Yesss the addition of puffed rice has always been my secret move, adds such a nice crisp. Picked it up from reading the ingredients on store bought granola, love it so much
I am so blessed as a tiny granola lover. I typically eat it alongside oranges and I serve it in a glass that I can just pour into my mouth and devour like a pelican
In protein shakes I've found an easy way to redefine the fibrous texture of bananas is to freeze peeled bananas beforehand; makes for a silky smooth (and pre-chilled, if need be) puree once a blender is applied. Worth a shot on that banana nut bread granola, I'd reckon.
Side note: I really like re-freezing said puree for a super-simple 1 ingredient base banana sorbet.
The timing of the pun and the music at 1:45 was pretty awesome. Also these look amazing and easy
Want to say, please dont change your delivery and style. Your consistent presentation and information is what made me subscribe when I've sacked off Adam Ragusa and Babish
Really? I find that Babish scratches a different itch, and Adam just alternates between educational content and longer forms of what Shaq does
I’ve also sacked off Babish.
He has a “you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all” vibe to his channel whereas Shaq is always posting something either really interesting, informative, clever or all three.
Plus, behind his well manicured voice overs, Babish is super cringe in person imo.
This is top quality short UA-cam.
The attached recipes, the jokes, the coaxing us into actually making something, the whole attitude towards a food. You should make a shortish collab with Dan
thanks for making a recipe that doesn't require a half sheet pan (and therefore a full-sized oven), as someone that's stuck in a small apartment with just a toaster oven, some of the granola recipes I've tried just don't downsize well. can't wait to try this 💜
You’re a real one for including gram measurements
Once upon a year the muses speak to me and I remember this channel and the wonders of cuisine that lie therein.
There's a better way to get clusters. Take a portion of your rolled oats and blend it into a powder. Mix that with the wet ingredients first. This creates really nice clusters that don't break up as easily.
Recipe at the start, ad at the end. What a man of the people.
This vid appeared in my recommended a month ago and I’ve made at least one batch a week since. I’d never made granola before in my life but this turns out A+ every time-perfect texture, fantastic clumping/grouping, and ideal flavor no matter what experiments I do. Commenting so the algorithm sends this to more folks until everyone is working with this recipe
Edit to add-my favorite so far has been coconut chai. Almond butter, honey, vanilla, almond flakes and shaved unsweetened coconut flakes, chia seeds, and a makeshift chai spice blend (cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, black pepper, and a tiny bit of clove and nutmeg). Ate most of the tray before it even had time to cool
i'm going to use dried pineapple and coconut butter+almond butter to make some myself. The banana one is so exciting, maybe I can do something like an squeezed apple + cinamon or a dates with lemon, orange zest. Thanks for this video!
I feel so seen as someone that took homemade granola and homemade hummus pills. I've been making the "Very Best Granola" recipe from Cookie + Kate, modified to 2Tbsp of homemade vanilla extract and making the nuts and seeds match this video's proportions. If you press down after the final stir and don't touch it until it's fully cool, you get giant slabs every time, which I enjoy.
Been an absolute hit with my family, friends, and coworkers!
One bonus about making homemade granola you didn't mention this time around- how good it makes your kitchen smell! Almost worth doing for the smell alone. Seeing you reference your 2019 video about granola/greek yog/jam/chia breakfast took me back, that was my daily breakfast for the first year of covid thanks to you. Also the video that got me into netshaq!
Coconut flakes are a go-to in my homemade granola
As someone who comes back to UA-cam videos with recipies often just to check the recipe, *thank you*
These videos are miles a head of what every other foodtuber puts out. Short, practical, and just all around tried and true info. God I love this channel.
I've been making granola for years. Homemade is great. Thank you!
love recipes where i can use whatever crap i have in the pantry/fridge. thank you 🤝 came out great!
this was the best granola ive made so far, the ratios were exactly what i was looking for thank uuuuu
Love this! So simple and I know all the ingredients!
This may be the first youtube recipe I actually try. Thanks!
always dropping the BEST cooking advice, thanks kitchen papi
I like the way you make videos. Thanks!
I made a new UA-cam account and didn't transfer of my old subscriptions. So glad I found you again, forgot how much I loved your content.
I love granola... Didnt know it was so easy to make... I thank you greatly sir.
I think this is the perfect video ever made that teaches a technique: it eases you into trying it with generalized recipe, some inspo, AND it’s entertaining cause you got this hunk teaching you
Can't wait to try! One tip I've seen a lot is to put another baking sheet on top so it toasts on both sides. Might even push it to YUM DELISH POINT FIVE.
Awesome video, really helpful. Thank you!
i love your channel and style so much
I just made a batch, it was super easy and extremely delicious.
Tried this recipe for the first time with great success! Thank you for sharing the recipe card and variations.
I had no idea making this was so simple. Thank you.
Commenting for better reach cuz your content is the most efficient uet entertaining cooking stuffs on YT
your first video about making granola got me on the train and this is a whole new way to do it! very interested to try (also already on the homemade hummus train so i do always have tahini). the recipe for granola I use is only a 20 minute bake as well though even without the tahini/nut butter
Oh damn this is so helpful! Loving your format! I thought you were gonna give up when you mentioned tahini and I would be stuck with a recipe I couldn’t get the ingredients for - but you didn’t!
thanks for another use of tahini!
One other thing that I tried for better clusters is after you do the turning, you can drizzle some honey directly over it. Then bake it the rest of the way. And yes, do not disturb the granola after this point until it's completely cooled!
I'm loving your smart & chill style.....I'm gonna give this recipe a try today.....never thought about using tahini but it makes total sense. I'm going to use organic, non-gmo oats though and I am going to use Rx Sugar which is allulose syrup....because my husband is diabetic and we try to reduce our carb intake as much as possible....I'm now subscribed to your channel and I look forward to watching more of your videos....even though I've been cookin' in the kitchen for 30 years, I value the learning that comes from others
I feel like I owe you a comment every time I come back to this recipe builder. Today I’m doing tahini based granola with mixed nuts, dates, and arabic coffee (it’s a much lighter roast mixed with spices like cardamom and cloves)
Amazing video, this solves my problems with homemade granola i had like a year ago
I just went to a podcast scoring workshop this week which opened up my brain appreciate the little touches and transitions Shaq puts in his videos. Nice work!
New favourite channel ❤
You speak very well and persuasive
That's the best granola recipe I've seen so far!
Brilliant tip on just using a dark liquor as a vanilla substitute. Thank you!
Another banger, recently gotten into granola. Gonna make these.
Thanks 😊
gosh dang now this is the deliciously practical stuff that makes net shaq the goat
in wush i could give more than one thumbs up. you're the best, Internet
This is perfect! I need a way to use up about a gallon of honey over the next few months and was thinking baklava but its so tedious... as a cluster lover this is perfect!!!
Btw before you ask why I have a gallon of honey - they came in the LARGEST regular mouth mason threaded jars I'd ever seen.
Ever since your video on prepping smoothies with them since the threads match my blender's, I've discovered the accessories go even further... it's like they're culinary legos!
So of course I had to buy a whole set just for the one lego in it 😂
Seriously though, it has led to me discovering all sorts of ingredients can go AMAZINGLY in a dish so long as they're well measured and distrubuted by, for example, a sprayer accessory lid. For example I've found balsamic can go on almost anything savory in small, finely distributed amounts - its just nearly impossible to do that without a sprayer in some cases!
I'm gonna try this this weekend :D
I have never made a recipe from UA-cam before ever, but I tried this today and it really was easy, and more importantly delicious. Thank you for giving me the push to try it! ^__^
Love that for u
You described pretty much exactly what happened with my partner. She was a granola fanatic during COVID, but ended up tiring of the process of making it.
I just made a batch using peanut butter and walnuts and it came out ridiculously well.
Love this!! Thank you so much. I'm tired of buying it in the store. About to make it now
thankyou
How did this man manage to make granola even easier?
Thanks for explaining the difference between granola and muesli! I had wondered….
Love the note card
Always a good day when Internet Shaq releases a new video.
Thanks shaq
Thank you!! Gonna try and make a batch with PB and sugar free maple syrup asap
Thank you for this helpful video. My young boy likes granola these days and it will be nice to make it at home and use up all that peanut butter and honey in the pantry.
thank you internet shaquille for vastly improving my breakfast habits
I tried putting wheat germ+Bran flakes together once and the clusters were top tier
Love hearing my music on ur channel as always 🙌🏻
I LOVE INTERNET SHAQUILLE THIS MAN IS A HERO
I imagine the long bake time and exposed composition of granola drives off all the vanilla volatiles. I might try misting my granola as it cools with a cocktail mister with vanilla... Or maybe orange bitters.
last year I kept getting gifted homemade jam during the summer fruit season and couldn't eat it fast enough, so I used it to make a ton of granola
ive come back to this vid a couple times but i just noticed somethings missing: dried fruit. if youre a raisinhead like me you have two options to prevent burning:
1) add them at the end. they will not be in clusters and will just be loose in the mix, but they wont be burnt.
2) my preference, soak them for a couple hours (or overnight) and then mix them in with everything. fruit in your clumps in exchange for some extra prep.
Nice recipe! I also like your hair :)
The definitive guide!
We make granola every 2 weeks and will never go back! Thanks for the new ideas!
One trick I learned is packing down the mixture before baking, makes excellent clumps
"this is one of those recipes you'll come back to often"
love the confidence.
youre so real for the flashcard at the beginning
That's a good brand of honey. It's the only wildflower honey I've seen in the grocery stores so far
We've took the tahini pill and mix it into loads of sauces and glazes
as soon as i read the chart at the start of the vid i was thinking about a pb/brown sugar/banana extract mix, before you even mentioned attempting a banana bread flavor with real bananas. not sure how well that flavor would come through once baked, but it is reassuring to know we were at one point on the same wavelength
Would be interesting to try blending banana chips into a powder and mixing that in with the dry ingredients.
I wish savoury granola or savoury nut bars were a thing, I don't like having sweet things all the time for snacks.
savory granola *is* a thing, but you still need to add a sweetener to bind all the ingredients together.
@@internetshaquille you could use glue 🤷♂
I have not tried this, but you could prohably just make non-clustered granola with egg white replacing some or all of the sugar
@@asat103cringe influencer didnt even cover the biggest hack out there
@@asat103 Actually not a bad idea, there is edible glue. I looked up savoury recipes and some use egg whites that are beaten then mixed into the granola before baking.
god i love this man
It's 9 months later and I wanted to make granola, I went to this vudeo specifically, and bam, that card at the beginning. Shaq has his viewers in a viewership loyalty chokehold and none of us will ever leave.
I would have loved an "oops! all mayonnaise" granola.
YUM
Interesting. I’ve been using a similar formula and plugging various ingredients in. BUT I always use some kind of oil instead of nut butter. Usually I like coconut oil. But I have tahini at home so I think that’ll be my next batch!
nice
