2. Arrange the bread in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
   

3. Transfer the baking sheet to a cold oven and heat to 180°C.
   

4. When the oven reaches temperature, flip the bread over, and toast for another 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the oven.
   

5. Meanwhile, in a shallow bowl, mix together the coffee, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, and the almond extract.
