Delicious! We really loved this yummy apple butter. I have several apple butter recipes for the crock pot, but none of them use balsamic vinegar...so, this recipe really intrigued me. Not only was it quick and easy to put together, but it was deliciously tart/ sweet and wonderfully spiced. I made this in a 3-quart crock pot just before going to bed, let it cook all night, and in the morning I woke to the house smelling wonderful. I served this on toasted apple cinnamon bagels...yum!! Thank you for sharing this fabulous recipe...it is definitely a keeper!<br/>**Made for Bargain Basement tag game**
