I do not think that it is fair that your husband "demands" this of you. You are his wife, not his slave. Tell him that you do not mind making him a cooked breakfast sometimes, but when he is expecting it everyday you feel that he is taking you for granted. I find that when my partner demands that I do something, that when I do it, I just wind up resenting it, and resentment is not good for a relationship.
On the flipside though, I think that sometimes we do ourselves a disservice by doing something in the beginning of a relationship a lot, and then our partners come to expect this type of thing all the time.
I think I have made my partner a full breakfast once in the last year, and that was at the weekend, as a bit of a thank you for getting up with our girl even though he had work the next morning.

On the weekends I can understand wanting a full breakfast but every day might get a little much.

First of all, if he is demanding, he is not treating you with respect, care or concern. He should treat you with the same amount of respect, care and concern in which he would like to be treated.
If he is expecting/demanding you to treat him "like your king", then he needs to reciprocate and treat you like "you are his queen".
You may need to talk to him and let him know that you are feeling hurt and upset (otherwise you would not be posting this question on here).
You need to talk to him so this does not become something that causes a wedge of resentment between the two of you.
You don't state if you have other responsibilities (your own job/career or children) to take care in addition to your relationship with your spouse.
If it is just you and your spouse, did this only recently start? Has he always demanded this and it's just now starting to bother you. If it's just now starting to bother you, you should look as to why it's only now starting to bother you where it did not before.
You may want to do some soul searching and think about why this is bothering you. You may also want to consider how your spouse might feel about about you sharing things that are going on in your relationship with strangers on the internet. Males sometimes have a privacy and pride issue when sharing things of their relationship with others without consenting them first.
I will place you on my prayer list and I hope things go smoothly no matter what approach you decide to take with him. Best of luck.

Your husband demands? That is just wrong no matter what he is demanding. Unless you are staying at home all day, doing nothing, spending his money and just having a good time. Then hell yes, make the breakfast and consider yourself lucky.

Demanding is not fair. Ask him to get you a maid instead.
Why not you demand a full dinner from him every night?

Demand ! Fair !
how can demands be fair...they are opposites!
Marriage is about love , respect , consideration , sharing , friendship , peace , fun , laughing , crying ....
You can't DEMAND any of those things ...but if we feel that way about each other we will WANT to do things for each other , without a question ....and MORE !

Most everybody on here must be young and don't have a clue to what marriage is all about !!!!
Marriage is a team effort and that is one small task you could contribute don't you think? It's not that hard and doesn't t take but 15 or 20 minutes. I think you should want to fix your man a good breakfast and see him off every morning! Breakfast is the most important meal of the day especially if he works hard. Family's should do more of this! Sit down and have a meal together and a cup of coffee before work, it's part of a solid relationship and something you should look forward to. I think it is a good thing!!!!!!!!

Is her really demanding? Cause if this is the only thing he asks, I say why not? But if he is generally demanding you got a can of worms, and good luck tying to do anything right for him.

Well,the whole "demand" thing sounds a bit violent...I wouldn't make him breakfast if he "demands" it,only if he asks...and he could also fix his own breakfast once in a while!:)
