redirect（）在自定义Laravel 5包中不起作用

Been facing an issue all week and I know it's probably simple but can't seem to figure it out :(

whenever I use in my custom package

return redirect('redirectToRoute');

all I get is a white screen if I use

dd(redirect('redirectToRoute'));

I can see the status is a 302 works perfectly fine outside of my package within the app folder but not inside my custom package what am I doing wrong?
