Do you let it sit before you cut it? This is huge! If I don't let it sit until it cools down, there is a huge amount of juice. Do you pat dry the apples before you put it in the crust to bake?
Just a couple suggestions. I think homemade pie is the best thing....even though I never eat it. When at all possible, I make it from scratch (except for the crust. Haven't got that much expertise yet)
Just curious, though, what kind of crust are you using? Just trying to figure out how you would poke a hole through the bottom of the pan. I also wouldn't drain it if I were you. If people like it the way it is, don't mess with good pie
