Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, add the whole almonds and pulse until they are finely chopped.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, chopped almonds, garlic powder, oregano, rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
In a small bowl, beat the egg and olive oil together until well combined.
Pour the egg and oil mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. It should be slightly sticky.
Transfer the dough onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and cover it with another piece of parchment paper.
Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough as evenly as possible to about 1/8-inch thickness.
Remove the top sheet of parchment paper and use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to score the dough into square or rectangular cracker shapes.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Allow the almond thins to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once fully cooled, separate the crackers along the scored lines and serve.
