Laravel 5.1 email views and templates

I'm trying to use sections and templates using Laravel 5.1, however when sending emails the HTML template does not get parsed.

For example the following code results in just the content part being sent and no HTML template (emails.template) with it;

@extends('emails.template')

@section('content')

    Hi there!<br><br>

    Please click on the link below to reset your password:<br><br> 

    {{ url('password/reset/'.$token) }}<br><br>

    <strong>Note:</strong> This is an automatically generated email, please do not reply.

@endsection

What could I be doing wrong?
