Slice croissants lengthwise into 1cm-wide slices. Spread one side with orange marmalade. Arrange slices in a buttered ovenproof dish. Whisk together cream, milk, eggs, sugar and zest in a jug and pour over croissants. Set dish aside for 30 minutes.

For the butterscotch sauce:
Heat butter, sugar, golden syrup and juice in a pot over low heat stir until sugar has melted. Increase heat; cook for 5–8 min until almost caramel. Remove from heat and stir in cream. Pour half of sauce over the pudding and bake for 1 hour or until set.

To serve:
Serve pudding warm with the extra sauce on the side.
