1. Use this:

   echo date("d M Y", strtotime($cpost->post_date));
   

   Here is the full parameter of the date function in PHP: date function Parameters.

2. You can use something of the sort:

   <?php the_time('j F Y'); ?> that will show the day, month and year of when the current post was posted.

3. Try this:

   Always use strtotime function to get Date, Month, and Year etc.

   echo date("d M Y", strtotime($cpost->post_date));
   

   Use the options you want in date function && pass values in strtotime function.

4. The format for the date is taken from the WordPress Settings (Settings > General).

   <?php the_date('j F Y'); ?>
