This OVEN ROASTED CORN ON THE COB, lets you enjoy fresh summer corn in the easiest way. There’s almost no prep time required and still, it comes out moist, beautifully caramelized, and oozing with flavor from my homemade garlic butter and Creole seasoning. Always a spot on delicious!

Oven Roasted Corn on the Cob

Oh, how I love summer! From its warm breeze to its fresh produce, summer awakens every bit of my soul. And this time of the year, corn (my go-to summer snack and side) is produced at its finest and cheapest, of course. Sweet, fresh corn is unarguably a staple here at home. It’s a great addition to salads, soups, and desserts.

If you remember, last week I introduced you to a new way of boiling corn ( How to Boil Corn ) and most of you were surprised with that😉. This time around I’m sharing with you THE ULTIMATE way to cook corn – Oven-roasted corn on the cob!

Why Make Oven Roasted Corn on the Cob?

Corn on the Cob

We all have our favorite way of cooking corn on the cob. While I really do love grilled corn big time, sometimes the weather isn’t that great for grilling (even here in sunny LA). Or there are also times that I just don’t feel like firing up the grill. So what does this corn-lover gal have to do? Pop that corn in the oven, y’all! 

So why should you roast corn in the oven?

  • It’s a “set it and forget it” kind-of-method.
  • Brings out that crisp sweetness.
  • It comes out moist and with a beautiful caramelization.
  • Perfect when roasting corn for a large group.
  • No worries of charring the corn on the cob.

How to Cook Corn on the Cob in the Oven?

If you’ve never tried roasting corn in the oven, you’ll easily get convinced with this method on your first try. It has very minimal prep time and it always turns out fantastic.

Oven Roasted Corn on the Cob in Foil

  • Remove the corn’s husk and silk.
  • Combine garlic butter and creole seasoning.
  • Brush the corn with the butter mixture.
  • Wrap up with an aluminum foil and roast

Adding that flavored butter is an easy way to incorporate flavors into the corn while also keeping it moist. This method is truly a game-changer!

Okay, if that left you in awe, then wait till you hear this. You can also roast corn even with the HUSK ON!

Oven Roasted Corn in Husk

Don’t want to go the trouble of shucking corn? No problem! Leave the husk on and pop them in the oven. This would be truly perfect if you’re roasting corn for a large crowd.

  • Use a knife or scissor to cut off excess silk from each ear of corn. Remove any loose husk, too.
  • Place each ear of corns with husk directly onto the oven grates while spacing them out evenly from each other.
  • Bake at a preheated 350 F oven for 35 minutes.
  • Allow it to cool slightly before removing the husk.
  • Season it with your desired seasoning.

Ways to Season It

Honestly, a great ear of corn on the cob doesn’t need that much. In fact, you can enjoy them plain and simple. But if you’re looking for ways to doll it up, I’m kinda partial to garlic butter and my homemade Creole seasoning. It’s sweet, buttery, garlicky with a kiss of heat. Or you can also check out these other top favorites.

  • Smoked paprika – has a pungent taste because of its pepper origins, also with a hint of sweetness from bell peppers.
  • Chili powder – has a more earthy flavor and seasoning-like taste. It’ll definitely give it a kick of heat.
  • Parmesan cheese – an earthy cheese that gives a pungent yet delightful flavor.
  • Fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, and parsley) – Add in your favorite herbs to give your corn a fresh taste.
  • Butter – Smooth and creamy butter makes the corn extra indulgent. 
  • Salt and pepper
  • Homemade Italian seasoning
  • Neutral oil, sour cream, mayo –  (see my Homemade Mayonnaise HERE) with crumbled feta cheese, chili and garlic powder

How Long To Roast Corn in the Oven?

This corn on the cob recipe only requires about 20-25 minutes of baking time while turning halfway through the roasting process. Quick, easy, and downright DELICIOUS!

    The instructions says 425 degrees for 20-25 minutes, but the video said 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Which one is it?

      If you’d choose to cook it at 425, you need to cook it for 20-25 minutes. But if you want a lower temp, it should be 35 minutes. 🙂

    This sounds delicious! If I’m making for 20 people should I adjust the cook time?

    What is the green garnish pictured in the recipe? Scallion greens cut/sliced? If so is that after roasting (included in the melted butter & spices)?
    Thank you!

      Hi Charlotte! It is chopped parsley that is found in the garlic butter :)! Looking forward to you trying out this recipe!
