In a large skillet or saucepan, melt the vegan butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until they become soft and translucent.
Add the fresh corn kernels to the skillet and stir to combine with the onions and garlic. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, until the corn is slightly tender.
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the corn mixture and stir well to coat the kernels evenly. Cook for another minute to cook off the raw flour taste. Slowly pour in the plant-based milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Continue cooking and stirring until the mixture thickens and reaches a creamy consistency, about 5-7 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting the seasoning as desired. Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the creamed corn to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired. Serve warm.
