I just came across this issue. There isn't anything built into ISODate turns out. So I'm converting the ISODate to JSON text, and then I do a substring to get the part I want. You can also use method on ISODate to get year, month, date separately and then combine them.

function formatDate(isoDate){
    return isoDate.toJSON().substr(9, 20);
}
