Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
Stir in the rolled oats and chocolate chunks until evenly distributed.
Using a medium cookie scoop or tablespoon, portion the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look just set.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your Oatmeal Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chunk Cookies with a glass of milk or as a sweet treat any time of day!
