Laravel - Implementing Fortify two-factor authentication without Jetstream

Question

I'm struggling to figure out how to implement 2FA provided by Laravel/Fortify (https://github.com/laravel/fortify) without using Jetstream. Currently there is no documentation regarding how to do it.

I have the twoFactorAuthenication enabled in the config/fortify.php

'features' => [
    // Features::registration(),
    // Features::resetPasswords(),
    // Features::emailVerification(),
    // Features::updateProfileInformation(),
    Features::updatePasswords(),
    Features::twoFactorAuthentication([
        'confirmPassword' => true,
    ]),
],

I have registered the twoFactorChallengeView in Providers\FortifyServerProvider

public function boot()
{    
    Fortify::twoFactorChallengeView('auth.two-factor-challenge');

And the account I'm testing the login with has values set in the two_factor_secret and two_factor_recovery_code fields

I have even compared my code to a working app with 2FA (a fresh install of Laravel 8 with Jetstream) but I can't see any difference in the configuration.

I am able to authenticate successfully but the 2FA challenge is never triggered.

What have I missed?

In the file App\Models\User.php

use Laravel\Fortify\TwoFactorAuthenticatable;
class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use TwoFactorAuthenticatable;
}
