Preheat oven to 475°F. Stir first 3 ingredients in large ovenproof nonstick skillet over high heat until butter melts.

Add plum halves, cut side down. Cook plums without stirring for 2 minutes.
Turn plums over and transfer skillet to oven.
Roast until caramel is deep brown, checking frequently to prevent burning, about 4 minutes.
Divide plum halves among 6 plates.
Spoon sauce from skillet over plums. Drizzle plums with crème fraiche,
