Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Grate the zucchini using a box grater, then place it in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. You should end up with about 1 cup of packed grated zucchini.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, almond flour, ground flaxseed, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and dried oregano. Stir the ingredients until well combined.
Add the olive oil to the mixture and knead gently with your hands until a cohesive dough forms.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out evenly until it's about 1/8-inch thick.
Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough (still between the parchment sheets) to the prepared baking sheet. Remove the top sheet of parchment paper.
Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, score the dough into small squares or rectangles to form the crackers. This will make them easier to break apart after baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the crackers feel firm to the touch.
Remove the crackers from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. Once cooled, break them apart along the scored lines.
Store the crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
