Laravel factory create without calling afterCreating callback

While writing tests I'm creating a model using factory $recipe = factory(Recipe::class)->create() but the RecipeFactory has afterCreating callback that runs and adds relations every time I create a recipe.

Is there a way to skip this callback? I don't want any relations to be created.

RecipeFactory.php afterCreating callback

$factory->afterCreating(Recipe::class, function ($recipe, Faker $faker) {
    $ingredients = factory(Ingredient::class, 3)->create();
    $recipe->ingredients()->saveMany($ingredients);
});

You can define a new state in the factory

$factory->state(Recipe::class, 'withRelations', [
    //Attributes
]);

Then you can define the after hook on the state

$factory->afterCreating(Recipe::class, 'withRelations', function ($recipe, $faker) {
    $ingredients = factory(Ingredient::class, 3)->create();
    $recipe->ingredients()->saveMany($ingredients);
});

And remove the existing after create hook.

Now when you use the default factory - no relations will be created.

$recipies = factory(Recipe::class, 5)->create();

However if you want to create related records also - you can make use of the withRelations state

$recipiesWithRelations = factory(Recipe::class, 5)->state('withRelations')->create();
