You'll need to enable 2FA in google and use the following settings.
You will need to generate an application specific password after configuring 2 factor authentication and use as password in the SMTP configuration
MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
MAIL_PORT=587
MAIL_USERNAME=<<your email address>>
MAIL_PASSWORD=<<app password>>
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls

The first time you attempt to connect programmatically through an Application Google will block it and send you an alert from your account.
Sign into that account through your browser and select approve the sign-in and you should be okay.

Go to - "https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps" while you are logged in to gmail and from same browser. Click on "Turn On".
