Add pear, almonds, sugar, and butter to a non-stick pan. Cook over low-medium heat, then stir in the cinnamon and vanilla. Allow it to reduce into a syrup consistency until the pears are tender.
Add the milk and oats to a saucepan over medium heat and stir until combined. Cook according to the instructions on the package. Season with salt. Once cooked, cover with a lid and set aside.
For the chicken sausage: If raw, cook in a 400°F oven to an internal temperature of 160°F using a thermometer. If already cooked: Preheat a non-stick pan over medium heat and brown the chicken sausage slices on each side.
Spoon the pear mixture over the oatmeal, top with dried cherries and serve with chicken sausage. Garnish with raspberries if desired.
