Ingredients:

- 4 ears of corn, husked and silked

- 2 tablespoons butter, softened

4. Sprinkle the corn with the salt and pepper.

5. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the kernels are tender and browned.

Here are some tips for baking corn on the cob in the oven:

- To prevent the corn from drying out, you can wrap each ear in foil before baking.

- You can also add other seasonings to the corn, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or chili powder.

- If you want to make the corn even more tender, you can soak it in water for 30 minutes before baking.
