Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Carefully peel back the husks of each corn ear without removing them and remove all the silk.
Spray the corn with olive oil to coat evenly.
In a small mixing bowl, combine vegan butter, minced garlic, parsley, basil, salt, black pepper, and paprika to create herbed butter.
Spread a tablespoon of herbed butter on each ear of corn, making sure it is evenly distributed.
Fold the corn husks back over the buttered corn.
Place the corn on a baking sheet with a little space between each ear.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the corn is tender and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and carefully peel back the husks.
Serve immediately with extra herbed butter and lemon wedges for squeezing over the top.
