Change Magento My Order 2.4.4 Date Format

I'm trying to change the date format from 3/6/22 to 03/06/2022 in this file:

/app/code/Magento/Sales/view/frontend/templates/order/history.phtml

How can I edit the following code?

<?= /* @noEscape */ $block->formatDate($_order->getCreatedAt()) ?>

As quick solution you can create helper in your module

<?php
declare(strict_types=1);

namespace Acme\StackExchange\Helper;

use Magento\Framework\App\Helper\AbstractHelper;
use Magento\Framework\App\Helper\Context;
use Magento\Framework\Locale\ResolverInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Stdlib\DateTime\TimezoneInterface;

class Date extends AbstractHelper
{
    /**
     * @var TimezoneInterface
     */
    protected $timezone;

    /**
     * @var string
     */
    protected $locale;

    public function __construct(Context $context, TimezoneInterface $timezone, ResolverInterface $localeResolver)
    {
        parent::__construct($context);
        $this->timezone = $timezone;
        $this->locale = $localeResolver->getLocale();
    }

    public function formatDate(string $value, string $format): string
    {
        $convertedDate = $this->timezone->date(
            new \DateTime($value, new \DateTimeZone('UTC')),
            $this->locale,
            true
        );

        return $convertedDate->format($format);
    }
}

and use this helper in template

// define it in the top
$_dateHelper = $this->helper(\Acme\StackExchange\Helper\Date::class);

// use
echo $_dateHelper->formatDate($_order->getCreatedAt(), 'm/d/Y');
