Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) fruits offer substantial nutritional and bioactive benefits, making them promising ingredients in dairy foods. Dates are rich in essential nutrients, including amino acids, vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, and phenolic compounds. These components contribute to various bioactivities, including antimicrobial, antioxidant, anticancer, and antidiabetic effects, which are driven by phytochemicals such as carotenoids, phenolic acids, flavonoids, tocopherols, and phytosterols. This study examines the incorporation of date fruits into dairy products, highlighting their potential to improve nutritional profiles, functional properties, and overall health benefits. The incorporation of date fruits into dairy products such as milk, yogurt, and cheese not only improves their nutritional content but also enhances their sensory attributes and shelf life. Dates can act as natural sweeteners, reducing the need for added sugars, and provide a source of dietary fiber, aiding in digestive health. Additionally, the antioxidant properties of dates may help prevent lipid oxidation in dairy products, thus extending their freshness and stability. This chapter focuses on current research on the use of dates in dairy foods, highlighting their benefits and potential applications. It underscores the need for further studies to optimize the processing methods and formulations for incorporating date fruits into dairy products without compromising their sensory qualities. The findings suggest that dates have significant promise as functional ingredients in dairy foods, offering a natural means to enhance nutritional value and deliver health benefits, aligning with consumer demand for healthier and more natural food options.
