Sufficient baking. That's what prevents a soggy crust in juicy fruit pies. The crust will be a nice, deep golden brown. Utilize the full bake range, don't worry if you have to leave it in a few extra minutes. If you're using a glass pie plate you can always peek at the bottom before taking out of the oven.

Cool pie at least 1 hour; serve warm. Store refrigerated.
