Gluten-Free Crab Cakes with Snap Pea Salad
['2 large eggs', '4 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest', '3/4 cup mayonnaise, divided', '2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, divided', '1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided', '3/4 plus 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided', '1 bunch scallions (about 6 scallions), divided', '3/4 cup mint leaves, divided', '1 jalapeño, preferably red, seeded, finely chopped (optional)', '1/2 cup almond meal', '2 tablespoons cornmeal', '1 pound lump crabmeat, picked over', '5 tablespoons olive oil, divided', '2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice', '1 pound sugar snap peas, trimmed, halved lengthwise, preferably on the bias', '6 red radishes', 'halved', 'thinly sliced']
Whisk eggs, lemon zest, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 Tbsp. mustard, 3/4 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a large bowl.
Finely chop 4 scallions, then finely chop mint to yield 2 Tbsp. total, reserving remaining leaves; add to egg mixture. Add jalapeño (if using), almond meal, and cornmeal and stir to combine. Fold in crabmeat, then form into 12 (1/2"-thick) patties.
Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Working in batches if needed, cook crab cakes until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate.
Meanwhile, whisk 1/2 tsp. mustard, 2 Tbsp. lemon juice, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/4 tsp. pepper, and remaining 3 Tbsp. oil in a large bowl. Thinly slice remaining 2 scallions on an angle; transfer to bowl with dressing. Add sugar snap peas, radishes, and reserved mint leaves; toss to combine.
Whisk remaining 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 tsp. lemon juice, 1/2 tsp. mustard, and 1/8 tsp. pepper in a small bowl.
Serve crab cakes with salad and mayonnaise sauce alongside.
Crab cake patties can be formed 1 day ahead. Arrange in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and chill.
