How to Make Christmas Morning Baked French Toast
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Generously butter a 13x9 inch baking dish.
- Arrange bread slices in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.
- In a large bowl, dissolve espresso powder in hot water.
- Whisk in milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and ½ cup of sugar until completely smooth and well combined.
- Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread slices. Gently flip each slice several times to ensure even soaking.
- Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar over the top of the soaked bread.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the French toast is puffed, golden brown, and set. The internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C).
- Remove from oven and let cool in the baking dish for 10 minutes on a wire rack.
- Dust generously with ground cinnamon before serving and enjoy!
