'breakfast device' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'rotates broken' is the wordplay.
'broken' indicates an anagram.
'rotates' with letters rearranged gives 'TOASTER'.

Can you help me to learn more?
