Step 1
Heat oil in a large pot over medium. Add onion and cook until deep golden, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes.
Step 2
Pour in broth and pumpkin puree. Stir until smooth and bring to a gentle simmer.
Step 3
Simmer uncovered for 6 minutes so flavors meld. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Step 4
Blend soup with an immersion blender until silky and completely smooth, about 90 seconds.
Step 5
Ladle into bowls. Dollop each with crème fraîche and swirl gently with the back of a spoon.
