Using an MVVM Pattern:

View (XAML):

<DatePicker Date="{Binding DateOffset, Mode=TwoWay}" />

ViewModel (C#):

private DateTime Date { get; set; }
public DateTimeOffset DateOffset
{
    get { return DateTime.SpecifyKind(Date, DateTimeKind.Utc); }
    set { Date = value.DateTime; }
}

You can use the Date Property , follow the documentation

  DateTimeOffset sourceTime = YourDatePicker.Date;
  BookingDate = sourceTime.DateTime;

To convert back to offset and bind to datetimepicker

   DateTime newBookingDate;
   newBookingDate = DateTime.SpecifyKind(BookingDate, DateTimeKind.Utc);
   DateTimeOffset bindTime = newBookingDate;
   YourDatePicker.Date = bindTime;
