Laravel-5 500 Error for all pages except "/"

I have laravel 5 on cent apache. "/" route works fine and brings up the welcome view. I ran make:auth to get my default auth settings in, but going to register or login gives me a server 500. I am going on the assumption I have mis-configured apache, or the default .htaccess doesn't support my setup. I am building an api interface (with passport) on top on a non-laravel site. It is a requirement to not use a sub-domain.

Apache conf:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mywebsite.com

Alias /api/ /var/www/html/mywebsite/api/public/

DocumentRoot /var/www/html/mywebsite
        <Directory /var/www/html/mywebsite>
                AllowOverride All
                Options FollowSymLinks
        </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

htaccess:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    <IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
        Options -MultiViews
    </IfModule>

    RewriteEngine On

    # Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]

    # Handle Front Controller...
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]

    # Handle Authorization Header
    RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
    RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
</IfModule>

Apache Log error:

[Wed Feb 01 10:15:00.385230 2017] [core:error] [pid 44198] [client ip:port] AH00124: Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace., referer: http://ift.tt/1RvM4eO
